Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf on Thursday said parliament was the mother of all institutions as it had a mandate of 180 million people. Speaking at an Iftar dinner hosted by Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah in his honour at the CM’s House, he said parliament was representing 180 million people of Pakistan, whether their representatives sat in the government or on opposition benches.
He said PPP leaders had rendered great sacrifices for democracy and laid down their lives, adding that other political parties “which are our allies also gave sacrifices for democracy, parliament and for people’s right”.
“When we see all of them (our allies) together today, it is a great message of reconciliation as no message can be greater than this for democracy, parliament and national institutions,” he said. Ashraf said the media was free today and the judiciary was independent and strong because of a stable democracy.
“This is possible only when democracy is strengthened through consistency. History tells us that these institutions cannot maintain their independence and strength in weak and unstable democracy,” he added.
“Therefore, all institutions must have their independence within their ambit and limits.” Earlier, Prime Minister Raja Pervez Ashraf visited Tharparkar to oversee the Thar coal project. Addressing a gathering there, Ashraf said the government had no clash with any institution, adding that no one understood politics better than the Pakistan People’s Party. Ashraf said he would accept the decision of the people.
He announced full support of the federal government for the ambitious Thar Coal project, aimed at helping the country meet its energy shortage.
The prime minister also announced an amount of Rs 200 million for development projects, including provision of electricity, in the area, besides announcing the setting up of an IT centre to impart basic computer education to children of the area. The prime minister, who was earlier given a detailed briefing by Dr Samar Mubarakmand about the gasification project to generate electricity from coal, announced a month’s salary as bonus for all those working on the project.
The prime minister said the completion of the project would attract investors from around the world and generate massive economic activity. Ashraf said the current project was the outcome of years of devoted work and had been a success. He praised Dr Samar Mubarakmand for working on the gasification project without drawing any salary.
He said initial estimates put 2 billion barrels of diesel in one block only. The coal reservoirs, he said, could be used to produce urea fertilizer, diesel, electricity and gas. He said three companies were currently working in the area, while many other international organizations were keen to join hands. Ashraf said the people of Thar had the first right to the coal reservoirs and their right had been strengthened after the passage of the 18th Amendment.
Parliament is the wicked step-mother of all institutions. Under ppp govt. this step-mother has become a bitch.
If parliament is the mother then jiayalas are the m*o*t*h*e*r*f*u*c*k*e*r*s.
Most eloquently put & we the people of Pakistan agree.
Well said. totally agree with you
Jab mother he corrupt hogi to bachon nay to corruption karni he hay….
What a twisted logic. A parliament comprised of thugs and looters can NEVER be supreme. This is a classic example of an alliance of thieves who have a common goal, which is, to stay in power at all cost and try to eliminate any hurdles in the way and in its current form, Supreme court is a hurdle.
Lets not forget one thing,its the people of Pakistan who have elected these corrupt leaders,remember you voted.Now in another few months,you will get another chance,make it count.
The people are guilty on two counts…
a) many didn't bother to vote
b) many didn't bother to kick this mother-fcuker of a parliament out like their brothers did in Egypt, Tunisia and Libya.
The Pakistani mindset is to shrug, complain but do nothing when faced with a useless, self serving and corrupt government.
The ALLAH MALIK mentality has given them an awesome ability to take abuse and misuse off the rulers. The Brits didn't rule India for 200 hundred years with magic. They ruled because they actually did something.
Given the character of the mother. No wonder the country is in a mess.
People with no credibility do not impact the minds and they know this.
Since ppp is so fond of saying that they have given great sacrifices for democracy and laid down their lives, can they do us one more favor and commit group suicide? This would be last sacrifice we will ask of them. We promise 🙂
Suicide requires a certain sense of honour and a great deal of courage.
These MFs have neither.
Here is the PPP report card.
Economics- Fail (Did not attempt subject)
Security – Fail (Did not attempt subject)
Honesty – Fail ( Had no concept of the subject)
Good Governance Fail (Did not turn up for class)
Foreign Relations Fail (Wanted the relations to mean getting fcuked)
Corruption Passed with distinction (Shows a natural ability )
Looting Passed with distinction (Displayed previously unknown ways to loot)
Overall assessment. Not fit to run a bath
This mother has failed to provide fundamental rghts to the people;
No gas, No electricity, No water and Huge Taxes;
parliament is mother of all institutions and zardari is father of all institutions
This mother is at best a W**H**O**R**E and very dirty one. This mother has F**U**C**K**E**D the hell out of its children.
IF PARLIAMENT IS THE MOTHER OF ALL INSTITUTIONS;ZARDARI IS THE FATHER OF PARLIAMENT commanded by him through criminal coalition of pppz,mqm,anp,mlchoudries
