Talking to the journalists, the prime minister said nobody needed to worry since the media and the judiciary was free in the country as well as there was political stability.
He said neither did NATO supply was shut on someone’s call nor would it be opened on someone’s prodding. “The Parliament has the final say on this,” he added. The PM said local election was purely a provincial matter warranting no federal intrusion on the subject.
