LAHORE – Federal Environment Minister and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Lahore President Samina Khalid Ghurki on Tuesday asked the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) to avoid the politics of confrontation.
Talking to journalists at the PPP Lahore Office, she said that the PPP believed in the politics of reconciliation but its workers were ready to respond to any kind of confrontation. She said that a decision on the 10-point agenda of the PML-N would be taken after consultation with all other political parties.
Ghurki said that the PPP would never leave the Punjab government and continue its struggle for strengthening state institutions. She warned that politics of confrontation would damage democracy adding that allotment of separate seats to the Unification Block in the Punjab Assembly was unconstitutional and the PPP would oppose it.
The minister said that the PPP leadership was following the policy of former PMs Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and Benazir Bhutto adding that there was no need for the PML-N to dictate the PPP.
