Gilani said that Mirza belonged to the same party and was part of the PPP 'family' and that his difference of opinion was part of the democratic process. He added that his matter was sub judice so there was no point in discussing it and instead let the courts decide.
Speaking on the issues facing the country, Gilani said that the parliament had to resolve all prevailing issues and the government was ready to discuss all the concerns of the opposition on the floor of the house.
He added that it did not matter whether he was retained as Prime Minister or not, but it was imperative that the democratic process should prevail.
Gilani said his government had passed a record number of laws and amendments in the parliament with unanimous consensus and that the government is committed to holding free, fair and transparent elections as it is in national interest.
He also said that the government was committed to uphold all the decisions made by the All Parties Conference (APC), reiterating that the government will not do anything against the interest of the country.
Talking about Pakistan’s seat in the United Nations Security Council (UNSC), he termed it as a big achievement.
Gilani also spoke about the army and how the democratic government had for the first time made the army accountable to the civilian leadership.

Gilani says " Gilani also spoke about the army and how the democratic government had for the first time made the army accountable to the civilian leadership"
That's a joke. After initially trying to do that by getting ISI to report to civilian authority (interior minister) and having to back track on a couple of foreign policy issues - the civilians have completely outsourced the foreign policy and national security policy to the army.
Ha Ha Ha...now this time MQM is being taken for a ride by the very PM himself. No doubt AZ's googly is too good for Altaf Bhai.I am surprised why can't MQM understand this guli danda of AZ. ZM wife is speaker and best friend is the President.Majority MPA are with him.7 provincial minsters can resign for him.So this is all topi drama.Just wait for the elections you will see ZM canvassing for Bilawal in Lyari.
@Tanzeel. "Responding to Mirza accordingly" whole pakistan know how you people respond, the way you responded to Imran Farooq and so many others. Its not only you tanzeel, Mr Faisal Sabzwari has already threated to ruin the peace of city. But you guys need to know this time most of your target killers are behind bar, thanks to recent operation and many Mirzas, Wasans and SSP Aslams will be unleashed if you resorted to violence again. No wonder evil lives on,
@ali. I dont know which planet do u live in, every one believes him, and actually no one has to believe him people have seen it with their own eyes what MQM does when its angry or annoyed, the latest trailer was played in august when they killed more than 400 innocent peole just because they were denied a seat in AJK
@Mirza,
while the article you quote is interesting but the author lost me the second he praised Haqani......he is the worst representative of pakistan if there ever was..........he goes out of his way to make pakistan look bad.........Maleeha Lodhi was a GREAT ambassador of pakistan.
Haqqani has dirt on Zardari, otherwise how is it possible that the PM and President call the ambassador back home and he refuses to come.......
Wow, he s party of ppp family, is this a go-ahead for mirza, omg. MQM has been very carefully cornered, geo Zardari.
MQM won't like this one bit!
MQM has been coping up with such conspiracies since ages they had to roll with the punches time to time. I am sure they will respond to characters like Mirza accordingly -- at right time.
Here we go again, I bet MQM will announce soon that they are quitting PPP’s government and then after one or two days they will lick their own spit…..what a joke !!!!!
There are all kinds of intrigues going on outside the parliment. The deep state is trying to bring the new King's Party back with the help of all lotas to thawrt the mandate of people. They have used the excuse of corruption already whenever the army took over. The PM and govt have to be careful and work with all democratic forces. http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/tarek-fatah/pakistan-newsb1095960.html
Plz PPP and Mr. Mirza..stop fooling the nation. No one believes your drama. Everyone know who is behind your antics.
mqm in trouble and so is altaf group
i am of the opinion as commenting on mirza the pm doesn't know anything on him as they didn't know even that sherjeel memon accompanied him. further dr.rehman malik was the only one who told that this was his personal visit and the only thing ppp did was to pay for his ticket.
now the problem is with mqm whose Vodafone ws continuously busy as they need to take directions from the govt after the effects of mirza in London and likely to open his mouth.
Big blow to MQM!!
