LAHORE – Contradicting Opposition Leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali’s statement, Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said on Thursday that the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) would not support any in-house change in the National Assembly to oust the federal government. He was speaking at a press briefing at the Punjab Assembly Committee Room.
The minister said that the PML-N would not support any move to dislodge the Gilani government, as it was not in the national interest to oust the federal government at this moment. Sanaullah said that demands of an in-house change could damage democracy and the country’s administrative system.
He said that replacing the PM was not a good option at this stage.
Answering a question about the resolution submitted in the Punjab Assembly (PA) against Punjab Governor Salmaan Taseer’s unauthorised foreign visit, Sanaullah said that the PML-N would try to introduce the resolution during the PA’s upcoming session.
The minister said that the federal government should properly respond to PML-N chief’s letter to President Asif Ali Zardari, as the letter was written to provide relief to the masses but the government has not replied properly, he lamented.
Reacting on the recent war-of-words between the PML-N and the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), Sanaullah said that although the party has restrained him from giving any harsh statement against its opponents but it is a fact that the MQM, as a party, believes in extortion so it has no comparison with his party, which has totally political and democratic beliefs.
