By Khalid Amin
ISLAMABAD—State Minister for Information Senator Tariq Azeem on Friday
said that next political strategy will be discussed in Islamabad rather
than London stressing no decision on arresting Sharif Brothers or
returning them back has yet been decided.
He expressed these views while talking to Online on Friday. Tariq Azeem
said that from now on Islamabad will be the centre of discussion rather
than London to devise a formal political strategy.
He said that Government has not yet decided whether or not to arrest
Sharif Brothers on their return to Pakistan on September 10. He was of
the view that anything can happen to them, however Government is
considering the pros and cons in light of the Supreme Court verdict with
reference to Sharif Brothers.
Replying to a question, State Minister said that we truly respect SC’s
decision regarding Sharif Brothers return to country in true letter and
Spirit.
He stressed that PPP alone is not in the position to take a massive
decision. Responding to another question, Tariq Azeem said that PML and
its Allied Parties are strong contenders for forthcoming general
elections in the country.
He said that PML is proud to be lead by Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain adding
that it is the most popular party of the country and people trust them.
He said that incumbent Government has set an example for others to
follow if we talk about development in the country since it took over.
He further said that in the past, Balochistan was completely neglected
but Musharraf Government has done a lot for the progress of Balochistan
and construction of Gwadar Port speaks high volume of it. |
