However, the dream of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Wali Khan, Mufti Mahmood and others is yet to be fulfilled.
He said [former Director General Intelligence Bureau IB] Masood Sharif [Khan Khattak] was given a notice to explain the perversion of the court. “He is on record as saying that the court is involved in politics and as DG Intelligence Bureau it is his duty to intervene.”
He said that people keep saying that the country will go bankrupt. “Did Japan go bankrupt? Did Korea go bankrupt? There was a time when Argentina’s currency was equal to the dollar and today it is going below our currency,” he added, adding that there was a time when India had only A billion dollars in reserves and he used to send his gold to the country. Switzerland would receive installments from the IMF.
Zardari said that we made the 18th amendment and the NFC award possible. We raised our voice for the rights of Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Balochistan is home to politically minded people, but we have to talk to them and communicate with them. Currently, a hostile state has created an environment that does not allow negotiations. However, we will go to Balochistan and KP.
Apart from this, People’s Party Chairman and Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari while addressing the Constitutional Convention at the National Assembly Hall on Monday said that it is important to expose these conspiracies on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee of the Constitution, which is even removed. Not finished. Puppet [Imran Khan] elected by vote of no confidence in the assembly.
He further said that till today there are institutions in every institution which are against this democratic journey because they are not only against this constitution on the ideological level but are also opposing the democratic path for their personal interests.
Bilawal Bhutto said that for the first time in the country’s history, an elected puppet was not sent with the help of the judiciary or the establishment, but democratically through a motion of no confidence.
Bilawal said that the conspirators still want to take away the powers given to the people by the Constitution and the 18th Amendment and establish a selected rule of ‘one unit’. He said that the main characters of the conspiracy hatched in the last three years have not yet come before the nation. He claimed that it was a decade long project and Imran Niazi was not the only character.
He said that there are other institutions in the country, like our judiciary, which in its history had judges who rejected every dictator and wrote dissenting notes.
The Foreign Minister said that the ideology which was being planned for the Parliament is also being plotted in the Supreme Court. He said that on the one hand, the Prime Minister is being asked to stay for 10 years, on the other hand, some judges are also being extended. The people involved in it are still part of our honorable judiciary. This conspiracy was also foiled by the no-confidence motion.
The PPP chairman said that there is another ‘institution’, for which the generic term is a misnomer, as it is under the defense minister. “There was also a conspiracy here, where Merit was to be killed. Someone had to be imposed on this institution even for 10 years,” he claimed.
Bilawal Bhutto said that the plan was to elect an elected Prime Minister, an elected Chief Justice of Pakistan and an elected Chief of Army Staff (COAS) to establish an elected martial law. “To the world,” he said, “we would have been a democratic nation, but the reality would have been something else. We were wrong to think that a no-confidence motion would end the conspiracy. It continues today,” he said. .
The foreign minister said that the conspiracy is to break the constitution and we have to work unitedly to thwart this conspiracy. “This game is not being played at our institution, and others have chosen to remain neutral. That leaves a place for the game to continue,” he said.
Bilawal appealed to the Chief Justice to create a democratic consensus within the institution as Pakistan’s judiciary stands at a crossroads.
He said that the court can either be one that defends the Constitution of Pakistan and its judges unite to form a bench for democratic consensus or run a ‘one-man show’ as Justice Minullah called it a ‘black dress’. Politicians dressed in ‘I’ says. Want to tell us that 2 plus 2 is 3, not 4.
He said that I am sure that the consensus of the Supreme Court of Pakistan will be democratic and any conspiracy will be countered.
Bilawal said that the Chief Justice along with a few judges are insisting on telling the nation that the notices of Justice Yahya Afridi and Justice Athar Manullah are irrelevant. He said that the people of Pakistan cannot afford this joke which is being played as a big game with the judiciary and the constitution of Pakistan. He said that our finance minister is working day and night so that we can get out of the financial crisis that the puppet has left us in. We are also starting operations against terrorism.
He said that the PPP believes that the way to resolve the wave of crises is to build a consensus and sit at the negotiating table. “The same spirit of responsibility applies to the Honorable Judiciary and if.”
