PPP backs Gilani's stance for not appearing before NAB: Kaira
Says if someone has committed corruption, former PM is not responsible for it.
MULTAN (Dunya News) - Former information minister Qamar Zaman Kaira has said that stance taken by former Prime Minister (PM) for not appearing before the court is correct, adding that the PPP has supported Gillani’s decision for not appearing before NAB.
He said if someone has committed corruption, former PM is not responsible for it. Gilani should not appear before NAB, he added.
Addressing a press conference in Multan on Saturday, Kaira said the country has fallen victim to terrorism and the incumbent government is not holding dialogue with Taliban despite having been mandated by all political parties. By not holding talks with the Taliban government is strengthening forces opposed to it, he added.
He alleged that government had become hostage in the hands of Taliban. Imran Khan was also standing with the forces which are lending support to status quo.
“Our stance is very clear on drone strikes and US is imperialistic rogue. The government should adopt a clear stand point on terrorism and tell the people what it wants”, he remarked.
The act of delimitations of constituencies in Punjab in connection with Local Bodies (LB) polls is pre polls rigging, he said. Election Commission should discharge its obligations and not allow the credibility of LB polls to be affected, he stressed.
