Notice should be taken against those who demean Parliament: Talal Chaudhry

Says all institutions should accept Parliament's decision even if they have reservations

ISLAMABAD: The Minister of State for Interior Affairs Tallal Chaudry said notice should be taken against those who demean the parliament.

Addressing the media outside an accountability court in Islamabad on Wednesday, hearing references against the Sharif family, the PML-N leader said major decisions were taken in the Parliament. “The resolutions passed by the Parliament should be accepted by all institutions even if they have reservations.”

He added that the masses cannot be heard unless supremacy of the Parliament is maintained.

Referring to the references being heard against the Sharif family, Chaudhry said none of the cases had been proven in last six months. “The only thing proven is that Nawaz Sharif’s stance was right,” he claimed.

On February 1, the Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Mian Saqib Nisar took suo motu notice of  Chaudhry’s contemptuous speeches against the judiciary.

While addressing a public gathering in Jaranwala, the PML-N stalwart had said: “There was a time when the Kaabah was filled with idols and now the judiciary, the country’s highest institution, is also full of PCO [Provisional Constitution Order] idols.”
