Judges passing anti-parliamentary remarks won’t be forgiven: Shah

Federal Minister for Religious Affairs Khurshid Shah said on Saturday that judges making anti-parliamentary remarks would not be forgiven.
He was talking to journalists after the inaugural ceremony of a utility store in Sukkur. Shah said the parliament was “sovereign” and respectable” institution of representatives elected by 180 million people of the country, and had the power to make legislation until its last day. “We would not allow anyone to damage its sanctity,” he said, adding that all institutions must work within their limitations. “For five years we tolerated everything. Even our prime minister and ministers had to go to courts and no case was proven against them,” he added.
The minister also said that no decision would be accepted that spreads anarchy in the state. He reiterated that elections would take place as planned. He further said that the procedure enshrined in the constitution regarding the creation of new provinces would be pursued.
About the sit-in announced by the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), he said the opposition party had said that it would stage the sit-in against conspiracies being hatched against democracy. “The PML-N’s intention would become clear after it stages the sit-in,” he added. He further said that no new employment orders were being issued after the imposition of the ban by the Election Commission.
