KARACHI: Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf said Sunday that the solution of the country’s problems is Parliament and democracy. Prime Minister Ashraf was speaking to the media following his visit to Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah’s mausoleum.

 

The new prime minister when asked about NATO supplies replied that the decision would be made by the Parliament.

 

Ashraf added that his government would be paying special attention to the energy crisis and the law and order situation. “We are giving priority to law and order issues,” Ashraf said.

 

The new prime minister emphasised that neither he nor his party believed in the politics on confrontation and would continue to pursue the policy of reconciliation.

 

Earlier, PM Ashraf visited the mausoleum of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah along with Sindh Governor Dr Isratul Ebad Khan, Chief Minister Syed Qaim Ali Shah, Federal Ministers Qamar Zaman Kaira, Manzoor Wattoo and others.

 

The Prime Minister laid floral wreath on the mausoleum and offered fateha. It was the first visit of Raja Pervaiz Ashraf after being elected as the Prime Minister of Pakistan.

I know people COLOR their hairs all over the world. And I do not want to get into that discussion, why people do that. But first thing PM should do is STOP COLORING his hairs and that would be the biggest change Pakistan needs. I see everybody starting from CJ, all COLOR their hairs. For GOD sake let the people see who you are. STOP COLORING.

It is a done deal; Zardari was waiting for an opportune moment of reinstatement of a new PM with opening of the route. Rental Raja will be no different to Gilani in that the office of CEO is rented to Zardari in exchange for a fistful of dollars to be added to what he earned as a minister in RPP. Raja is cut of same cloth as Zardari both serving time in jail with both outdoing each other on corruption scale. Aye Pakistani people you deserve it as you are not gutsy taking to the streets!
