Shujat accuses PML-N of ‘embroiling govt in unnecessary crisis’

PML-Q head, Chaudhry Shujat Hussain has accused PML-N of ‘embroiling government in unnecessary crisis’, (!) thus ‘hindering any effective progress’ (!) of Nation.

Talking to a private TV channel, he scoffed at political parties’ demands for early elections, as these cannot be held without consensus between government and opposition.

He invited Mian Nawaz Sharif to talk to ruling coalition regarding early February elections, which would only be held if Nawaz Sharif personally requested for them; assuring that if Nawaz did request , he(Shujat) could make a willing Zardari agree to the early elections.

He also scoffed at the notion that merely media pressure through print, could usher in new elections, as the government had been mandated for five years, tenure it would complete at all costs.

He said that politics never closed its door for dialogue, and give-and-take was a political staple.

Referring to his recent meeting with the Army chief, he termed it as a routine matter, and was totally non-political in nature. Strongly ruling out any Army coup, he said that Army chief met him frequently on various occasions.

Replying to a question, he informed that during talks with MQM, it was conveyed that the party wanted to maintain its own system, while still corroborating with government; saying that MQM did not have any principled opposition against the resolution

He also expressed his support for the resolution, saying that there was nothing wrong about it.

Replying to a question, he strongly downplayed memogate as having no substance, and stressed on resolving the pertinent issues / crisis , instead of wasting time and energy over such frivolity.
