ISLAMABAD: Reacting to the PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s decision to postpone the November 2 lockdown of the federal capital, PAT chief Dr Tahirul Qadri on Tuesday said: “Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji’un”.
In an interview with a TV channel, Qadri said he felt as though everything had vanished and was of opinion that the nation would remember this matter for a long time. Qadri said he reserved the right to comment on the PTI’s decision, as it was Imran Khan’s right to decide in this regard.
He said the government was again playing with every institution. He said the current chief justice would retire this month and the new chief justice will pursue his own mechanism that will take a long time.
He asked if everything would be under the authority of the chief justice. The PAT chief said if all the parties failed to agree on the ToRs in seven months, how these parties will agree on the terms now.
Asim Yasin from Islamabad adds: PML-Q central leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Chaudhry Pervez Elahi Tuesday expressed hope that the Judicial Commission of Supreme Court will complete the process of accountability soon.
He said the PML-Q saw a ray of hope in the measure taken by the Supreme Court and was hopeful that this issue will reach its logical conclusion.
Talking to newsmen at his residence here, he said through the fully-empowered Judicial Commission the Supreme Court will pull the country out of crisis and the people will get justice.
Senator Kamil Agha, Ch Zaheeruddin, Muhammad Basharat Raja, Major (R) Tahir Sadiq, Ajmal Wazir Khan, Hafiz Ammar Yasir, Rehman Naseer and other PML leaders were also present.
Thanking the party leaders and workers coming to participate in November 2 sit-in at his residence, he said because of them the party morale had increased.
“We had agreed with the opposition parties because this is not a matter of just one party but the demand of the entire nation. There must be accountability of thieves and the plundered wealth must be retrieved.”
Chaudhry Pervez Elahi said the government resorted to terrorism throughout the country, particularly in the Punjab.
“We fully condemn this attitude of the government; Islamabad does not belong to Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif; words are not enough to condemn the injustice meted out by Shahbaz Sharif to the KP chief minister and brethren coming to Islamabad from the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province,” he said.
He expressed gratitude to the workers arrested in Attock, Chakwal, Talagang, Kasur, Bahawalpur, Sheikhupura, Mandi Bahauddin, Gujrat and other districts and assured them that their courage and spirit had given a new lease of life to the party.
According to the schedule, candidates filed their nomination papers from March 16 to 18
