Federal Minister Khurshid Shah asks Supreme Court not to become part of politics

Federal Minister for Religious Affairs Syed Khurshid Shah Monday said that the Supreme Court of Pakistan should not get involved in politics.

“The government will complete its constitutional term and will foil every kind of conspiracy being hatched to derail the democracy, the minister said while talking to the media.

He made it clear that the judiciary and the military beside other institutions will be nowhere without Pakistan.

In his view, the survival of institutions is linked with the existence of the country. He made a demand to all the political parties to come unite in the testing times of the country.

Shah further stated that the PML-N was hatching a conspiracy against the government by taking the memo issue to the Supreme Court, adding that he said Nawaz Sharif should not drag judiciary into politics.

The minister clarified that they were not afraid of the memogate scandal as the party had successfully confronted such kind of conspiracies in the past.

Commenting on the Zardari’s comeback, he stated that all rumours had ended and attempts to create anarchy and instability were foiled.

He believes that the party and its leadership have always faced challenges and will always remain with the people of Pakistan in the time of test.

The minister maintained saying that the opposition parties should wait for the next general elections and should face the Senate polls to be held by March 2012.

Flaying criticism on PML-N, he asserted that Nawaz Sharif was worried about the activities of Imran Khan, as PTI could grab their vote bank.

He stated that neither the PML-N nor PTI could create hurdles for the PPP in Sindh, as his party had strong roots in the province. He also clarified that none of their party member will join Imran Khan’s PTI.

Khurshid Shah informed the media persons that his party soon bring a resolution in favour of Seraiki province in the National Assembly, adding that people of the region would not tolerate if anyone attempted to create hurdles in this regard.

“We will invite all political parties to support the resolution,” the PPP leader said adding all parties knew the meaning of opposing the demand of Seraiki Province.
