Shehbaz Sharif, president of the Pakistan Muslim League-N, said Monday that Prime Minister Imran Khan broke the constitution when he dissolved the assembly because he had a “conspiratorial mind.”
“Yesterday will go down in Pakistani history as a dark day when Imran Niazi established civilian martial rule. Musharraf followed suit on Nov. 3, 2007. “Imran Niazi exploited the deputy speaker as a tool,” he told the Islamabad press in an interview. People from other political groups were also there, including Pakistan Peoples Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, and Maulana Abdul Ghafoor Haideri of the Jamiat Ulema e Islam-F (JUI-F) group.
Shehbaz Sharif questioned why the no-confidence resolution was included in the National Assembly session’s schedule for consideration if it was illegal. He felt that a dangerous joke was being played on the constitution, parliament, and the populace.
He said that Imran Khan has begun issuing treason certificates. He said, however, that they never referred to anybody as a traitor.
The president of the PML-N group wondered why, if the purported threat letter was sent on March 7, it wasn’t talked about at the NA meeting on March 24.
Whereas Bilawal Zardari said that although the Supreme Court could not halt the actions of past army commanders Zia ul Haq and Pervez Musharraf, he thought it might halt Imran Khan’s. The Supreme Court should decide whether Imran’s ego or the constitution is more important.
“Parties such as ours are never satisfied with unconstitutional conduct.” Under our insistence, the prime minister raised the pistol and committed suicide, “he claimed.
He said that deposing the prime minister through a no-confidence resolution was a constitutional process. The Prime Minister, he asserted, was unaware of his error.
According to Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, the PTI grabbed 14 seats from his party, implying that they snatched power from the PTI. He said that his party would back Imran Khan if he could demonstrate that foreign interests were plotting against him.
