Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz President Nawaz Sharif has said that the army was not interested in dislodging the government but the establishment was encouraging politicians to join a particular party, a veiled reference to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf. In an interview with a private TV channel on Thursday, Nawaz said they had concrete proof that the establishment was sending the politicians to a specific political party, adding that the budget of armed forces and intelligence agencies should be debated and approved by parliament.
He said he did not meet the ISI director general and the chief justice of Pakistan, but said he was confident that the judiciary would not deliberately dismiss the government. However, Nawaz said Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif and Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan had been meeting the chief of army staff in national interest. The PML-N president said he had moved the Supreme Court on the memo issue after getting disappointed by parliament. He called for a thorough investigation into the memo issue as it related to national security. Nawaz said he was not opposed to the creation of new provinces on administrative basis and was in favour of Hazara province.
He warned against the creation of provinces on linguistic basis, saying if that was done, the situation would go out of hand.
The PML-N chief said the government had failed to resolve the people’s problems and it was time that the government held fresh elections.
