What possessed him?
There is no telling what possessed Punjab Law Minister Rana Sanaullah to come out so openly and rule out legal action against JuD and JeM because the “state itself is involved”. Surely, being a politician for so long, he realises that his words in capacity as minister reflect upon the government he represents; especially when he is talking about extremely sensitive matters. But, then, it’s not as if Pakistani politicians have not been known to promote their own smart ides on live TV, and then regret it soon afterwards.
Still, Sanaullah is too high on the PML-N food chain to be out of the loop regarding the kitchen cabinet’s plans. It was for a reason, after all, that the party made sure he was reinstated as law minister after the Model Town disaster. So it was either a calculated move to stir up a measure of timely confusion. If so, it was in poor taste and poorly timed. Or it was a case of Rana sahab being more correct than political on a matter of national importance. But if that were the case, why return to his trademark political correctness about South Punjab’s militancy problem? Why not be just as straight forward about the back yard and PML-N’s suspect linkages as well?
Interestingly, Interpol has issued Red Corner Notices against JeM chief Maulana Masood Azhar and his brother Abdul Rauf in the Pathankot Airbase case; at New Delhi’s request, of course. Perhaps Rana Sanaullah would remember that this incident drove a decisive wedge into the negotiations. And now, with its ‘internationalisation’, it is sure to raise further controversy. For Punjab’s law minister to raise provocative remarks, that too in an interview with a foreign news service, is irresponsible if not a lot more. This is, in fact, a good time for the government to show its commitment towards settling irritants like JuD and JeM once and for all; not just for international diplomatic optics, but for its own present and future.

This Mr Rana, is Fake Doctor Rehman Malik, of PML(N) who is always on the loose. What these both say is mockery of Politics. They should be part of TV Show like "Mazaq Raat".
He represents PML N true culture and is one of the creators of such degenerate culture. People are now fully in picture about this culture . I am sure even Talal and his friends less Perv Rashid understand. I can’t vouch for Abid ‘Sher’! You see this the difference between PTI and PML N. I have no doubt when these gentlemen go home their children ask “Baba why do you tell lies?” Not Khawja Asif. He has totally bazari dialect and mannerism of a street tramp.
We Pakistanis keep on electing pseudo criminals and yet expect our beloved country to be part of descent polity in world arena as Islamic Republic of Pakistan. Pity be on us.
May be you are right. But last two elections, I went to vote and after checking their lists, they told me Your vote has been cast ! My name was stuck-off from the list even if my ID was card was with me. Who do we blame ?
