If the purpose of making a grand alliance is merely to topple the government, the JUI-F would not become a part of any such move, said opposition leader in Senate Abdul Ghafoor Haidri while talking to the media here on Friday.
Ghafoor who is also JUI-F’s central secretary general said that it was the PML-N that had been playing the role of a ‘friendly opposition’ in the National Assembly for last three years and it could not become the voice of all the opposition parties. He said Nawaz Sharif had defied the opposition parties in the past during the days of Islami Jamhoori Ittehad (IJI) and All Parties Democratic Movement (APDM).
“That is why Jamaat-e-Islami, Tehreek-e-Insaaf and the nationalists parties from Sindh and Balochistan have refused to join the grand opposition alliance on Sharif’s call”, Haidri observed.
He said the findings of Abbottabad commission would be released only when those responsible would not around to be punished. He cited the delay of 50 years before the report of Hamoodur Rahman Commission on the debacle of Dhaka was finally declassified.
