Judges resolution to be tabled before joint session: Zardari
Staff Report
ISLAMABAD—Co-chairman Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Asif Ali Zardari
Wednesday said a resolution for restoration of judges will be presented
before a joint session of Parliament.
He was addressing a press conference after attending a meeting of PPP’s
Central Executive Committee, Federal Council and MNA’s and MPA’s from
Punjab. “The media is presenting a picture as if the country is facing a
situation of severe crisis, but in my view the situation is not that
grave,” Asif Zardari maintained.
He said detailed investigations into the assassination of PPP leader
Benazir Bhutto will be undertaken. “I will take the revenge of
Mohtarma’s slaying through transforming the system…we want that experts
should undertake the probe and get to the bottom of it,” he added.
“There was a foreign conspiracy behind the Martyrdom of Zulfiqar Ali
Bhutto,” Zardari said he is committed to pursue the path of honesty and
reconciliation. “We were the ones who initiated the lawyers’ movement,
laid down maximum sacrifices, we chanted the slogan of changing the
system,” he claimed. We want to arrest the economic melt down, he added.
He said PPP and Pakistan Muslim League-N do not agree only one point,
adding, it does not at all mean as if there is a huge rift between the
two allies.
