Hitting back: ‘Opposition’s attitude undemocratic’
Premier says people of Pakistan want opposition to behave like a democratic entity.
The prime minister has said that the opposition’s attitude on the day of the budget was “extremely un-parliamentary, undemocratic and unethical”.
Addressing a parliamentary party meeting of the PPP MNAs and coalition partners at the Parliament House, Yousaf Raza Gilani “deplored the attitude of the PML-N” and said PPP and the PML-Q had decided not to disrupt the budget session of the Punjab Assembly where they have about 175 members.
In a statement released, the premier said that the people of Pakistan want the opposition to behave like a democratic entity and desist from hooliganism and concentrate on pointing out the deficiencies in the budget and give proposals to the government for improving the health of the economy.
