Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani has said there will be no martial law in the country as it can not afford it and our future is linked with democracy.
In an interview with a private TV channel‚ he said no one could dare to impose emergency in the country.
He said the government is confronting with various challenges which adversely affected the economy but despite that government is trying to give incentive to the people in the upcoming budget. These include no new taxes‚ creation of one hundred thousands jobs‚ expansion of Benazir Income Support Programme in urban and rural areas and priority number one in power sector.
Answering a question‚ the Prime Minister said President has the immunity and it has been given by the parliament. He said if he did not write the letter that means he is protecting the constitution.
He further said Pakistan is passing through evolution and all the institutions are also passing through the same process and with the passage of time every thing would be all right.
On a question about filing of appeal against the decision of the Supreme Court in contempt case‚ Prime Minister Gilani said he had consulted the legal experts and party leaders on this issue and consensus has been developed against the filing of the appeal.
The Prime Minister said Nawaz Sharif was fined for over speeding on motorway and he remained convicted Prime Minister or leader of the party and remained convicted for nine years and he was sentenced for moral turpitude in hijacking case.
The Prime Minister said there is no change of moral corruption against him and the only charge against him is disobedience of the court for not writing a letter to the Swiss Court as the President has complete immunity.
About load shedding‚ he said that his government had added three thousand six hundred megawatt to the national grid and many more short and long term power projects are in pipeline to end unscheduled load shedding.

  5. Guys puting up above comments have their minds f..uc..k..ed up by 36 years of martial law, 10 years of quasi-martil law, and propagenda unleashed by Mullah-Military alliance since 1977, fanatic jahadi upbringing. I can feel mercy for them becoz they were never born in normal democratic circumstances. They just get upset by temporary noise and hulla-gulla of democracy and start crying for army which already f…u..c…k..ed them up and responsible for present state of this country.
