Federal Law Minister Babar Awan on Sunday called upon Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif to treat his allies in the same way as he treats his party MPAs. Talking to mediamen at Lahore Airport, Babar quipped that the Punjab government should give due heed to dengue virus instead of political virus, adding that the former could catch mosquitoes, if not the absconders. Replying to a question about the interim short order by the Supreme Court regarding the judges appointment issue in 18th amendment, the minister said the SC orders are being implemented in letter and spirit and the government would assist the apex court and Bars in the formation of judicial commission, which would be set up soon. When asked for his take on the court ruling, he said I would speak on it in the Parliamentary Committee for Constitutional Reforms (PCCR) meeting, scheduled to be held on November 1. About Safdar Abbasis party membership suspension, the minister said that nothing such thing happened. Public has no interest in the political cases, they just want the rulers to address their grievances, Babar maintained. Babar is the biggest virus of corruption, says SanaullahTalking exclusively to Dunya News, provincial Law Minister Rana Sanaullah has said that Federal Law Minister Babar Awan is the biggest virus of corruption. He said that the Punjab government would certainly bring the proclaimed offenders to justice but at the moment the biggest problem of the country is corruption and the virus of corruption must also be controlled. He sarcastically said that a virus of corruption (Babar Awan) has received 300 million rupees for the Harris Steel Mills case. He also termed Babar Awan as the greatest threat to the democratic system of the country. The corruption virus is present in the presidency as well as the prime minister house and an anti-virus would be sprayed in these places, he added. The provincial law minister said that the Chief Minister Punjab took an immediate notice of the Dengue virus spreading at a fast pace and immediate orders were given for the anti-virus sprays. He also vowed not to leave any stone unturned to control the deadly virus.
