Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Monday said Prime Minster Yousuf Raza Gilani should resign from his post after indictment with contempt charges.
Talking to media in Karachi, Khan said that PTI was standing with the Supreme Court to implement the orders.
He said no moral justification is left for PM Gilani to stay in his office after he was indicted by the apex court.
Khan said, “What moral justification does Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani has after being indicted?”
“It is a duty of court to decide who is involved in terrorism,” he said. Khan said that democracy is governed by “morality, not force,” as force “remains with the armed forces.”
He said PM Gilani had committed contempt to safeguard the Rs5 billion of Asif Ali Zardari.
It should be mentioned here a seven-member bench headed Justice Nasirul Mulk framed charge against PM Gilani with him (PM Gilani) standing in the docks over failing to implementing the court order over a span of more than two years in National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) Implementation case.
The opposition parties said nobody is above the law and the Constitution even if he is the chief executive of the country.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Ishaq Dar Monday said his party has no role in making Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani ‘an accused’ in National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) Implementation case.
Dar said his party stands by the judiciary in this regard, adding his party always advised Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) to act upon the court orders precisely.
Analyst and politician Ayaz Ameer said the law gives time to the person accused after framing of the charges against him; no verdict can be delivered summarily.
In contrast, the PPP said it has always honored judiciary and will continue doing so in future as well and no step will be taken up in clash with the law and the Constitution.
The PM should now resign volantarily from this post .If he commits to remain there,it will damage his as well as so-called alliance`s morality.but who teaches POWER GREEDY ELEMENTS`S UNITY.But Gilani has the brain,why he should not think about that.People do not want thid dishonest man anymore,but due to power greedyness,he will never step down.There is no morality in that leadership.all the Baighairat of Zaleel parties have gathered and they are going to damage Pakistan`s image not only inside but also throught the whole world.What a shameless and power hungry few group of opportunists.
