Former prime minister and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Leader Raja Pervaiz Ashraf has said that the name of former premier Nawaz Sharif should be put on Exit Control List (ECL) for indiscriminate accountability and rule of law.
Speaking to media, the PPP leader said that Nawaz Sharif reaped what he had sown for others in the past. He further said that a dictator had entered the clauses of Article 62 and 63 for blackmailing parliamentarians but unfortunately political leaders also used it for their own purposes.
Pervaiz Ashraf stated that they had attempted to remove these articles from the Constitution in 18th Amendment, but Nawaz Sharif rejected the proposal for using them against PPP. He further said that Nawaz Sharif was being disqualified for those specific Articles of the Constitution.
The PPP leader added that their names had been added on the ECL and today, names of PML-N leaders are being demanded to be added on the same list.
