Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) backed Opposition Leader in National Assembly Syed Khursheed Ahmed Shah sounded alarm bells for democracy, saying that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was afraid of rallies and protests despite having two-third majority in the assembly.

Talking to journalists during his visit to PPP’s media cell in Karachi, Shah said that if prime mister was afraid of the current situation, then there could be a danger to democracy.

The opposition leader said that Nawaz had got votes from 15 million people but he was afraid of the person who neither had a substantial public support nor a representation in the Parliament.

“I ask Nawaz Sharif to come out of General Zia’s effects,” he said adding that Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif facilitated Dr Qadri for a long march during PPP’s tenure but now was creating problems for him.

“I had warned Nawaz Sharif several times to become a real democratic prime minister,” he said, adding that the democracy could be challenged if “a single drop of dictatorship was mixed in it”.

Shah said that Gen (r) Pervez Musharraf had treated Nawaz Sharif in the same manner like Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) chief Dr Tahirul Qadri was being treated by Nawaz as Sharif too was not allowed to join his father’s funeral.
