Summary PML-N rejects commission’s recommendations, wants Punjab Assembly resolution implemented.
LAHORE: Addressing a press conference here, along with Punjab CM Shahbaz Sharif, Ch Nisar said the recommendations of the commission on new provinces were not in line with the resolution passed unanimously by the Punjab assembly.
He said even the reference sent by President Zardari to Senate mentioned two provinces: Multan and Bahawalpur.
Nisar said federal government has no constitutional right to change the administrative structure of the provinces without the consent of the provinces.
“PPP leadership is repeating its history by betraying and misleading the people on the issue,” he said.
He said the commission has come up with a strange concept of Bahawalpur Janobi Punjab Province, totally ignoring the Punjab Assenbly’s resolution.

Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif speaking on the occasion said PPP was only creating confusion.
He said PPP leadership was on foreign tour when people of South Punjab were facing disaster by the floods.
“Now they are claiming to be the sympathizers of the people of South Punjab,” he added.
