Law Minister: ‘Qadri is a stunt played by the establishment’
Fate of Qadri’s long march would be much the same as Imran Khan’s sit-in’s against the drone attacks, says Sanaullah.
LAHORE:
Law Minister Rana Sanaullah said on Thursday that legal action will be taken against Tahirul Qadri for moving in vehicles without licence plates.
He said he was sure Qadri would not go ahead with the long march. Sanaullah was speaking to the media in front of the Punjab Assembly.
The fate of Qadri’s long march, he said, would be much the same as Imran Khan’s sit-in’s against the drone attacks. A person traveling in three bullet-proof vehicles with fake number plates will never take out a long march. The minister said that Qadri was a stunt played by the establishment. The days of politics manipulated by the establishment are numbered, he said. A strong media, and an independent judiciary and election commission would not let the establishment fool the people. He also said that Federal Information Minister Qamar Zaman Kaira should be ashamed that his party had appointed Makhdoom Ahmed Mehmood as the governor.
