Sindh Minister for labour and manpower Saeed Ghani on Saturday said that the previous chief justices of Pakistan were doing everything to weaken the national institutions. Speaking at a press conference at his Camp Office he said that labour leader Liaquat Shahi and others would strengthen the PPP.
"We will win the by-elections in 11 union councils with a big margin," he claimed. The PPP has allotted ticket to Liaquat Shahi for UC 3 Shah Faisal Colony by-polls where the PPP and PML-N are contesting the elections jointly. Speaking on the occasion, Liaquat Shahi thanked the PPP chairman for reposing trust in him.
"It is high time all progressive forces came out in support of the PPP and vote for it in the by-election." Responding questions from reporters, Ghani said that unfortunately the previous chief justices of the Supreme Court, especially Iftikhar Chaudhry and Saqib Nisar had undermined the respect for the judiciary by indulging in unnecessary judicial activism.
"The (current) chief justice should give up his ego. A disputed bench should not rule on issues of national politics," he said while referring to the ongoing election delay case in the Supreme Court.
