ISLAMABAD: The federal government is in a fix because Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Chairman Nawaz Sharif wants an intra-party investigation and appropriate action over the embarrassment suffered due to Faizabad operation debacle, according to reports by a private media outlet.
According to reports, PML-N chief wants to hold accountable whosoever is responsible for this episode, even if it means a shake-up of the cabinet. However federal government functionaries are not in favour of taking action with regard to sit-in debacle, fearing that such a move in the prevailing circumstances might create new problems rather than mitigating the existing ones.
It emerged on Tuesday that more than a dozen PML-N members of the National Assembly and the Punjab Assembly had sent their resignations to a spiritual leader from Sargodha in protest against the government’s policies regarding sit-ins in the federal capital as well as in the province.
It has also been reported that Nawaz Sharif had been kept under the impression that dispersing the protestors was an easy task. But the unexpected failure of the operation infuriated the PML-N chief, who reportedly came down hard on the interior minister during a party meeting at Punjab House.
