PESHAWAR: If the government wants to dissolve the assemblies to please just one person then the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) should better join Dr Tahirul Qadri’s party, said Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
During a briefing to journalists in Peshawar on Sunday, the JUI-F leader, while commenting on Qadri’s statement, said that no one should be allowed to be a political pawn, and that too of a person whose party has no representation in Parliament.
Fazl said that the solution of every problem lay in the Constitution and that should be followed. Decisions should be taken after forging consensus with other political parties.
The JUI-F leader said that the caretaker prime minister should be decided based on mutual consensus for which negotiations with opposition parties are under way. He added that wishes of any one person should not dictate the proceedings of the election, or the composition of the election commission.
“If some people are in favour of Qadri they should merge their parties with his (Qadri’s) party,” he remarked.
Furthermore, the JUI-F chief said that the hue and cry for Bahawalpur South Punjab province has only been raised to win more votes in the coming election.

Qadary has entered in Pakistan politics not from the back door but through an open public support . He has a wide support from all walk of life not only in the country but from out side as well . He is a new type of option before the Pakistani voters who desperatly wants a man who can eradicate terrorism from the country . Qadary has entered there and his entry can not be challenged by all wings of power existing in the country .In fact all of them remained a silent spectater and supported his declared agenda .All those who will fight election with his blessings will won the next election and the govt. formed will also enjoy an international support for long servival .
Its seems PPP want a quick rebirth with the new name, I didnt get it how Qadri became a major stake holder instantly even none political. Pathetic supper hero of status co.
