Former Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani Wednesday pointed out that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif did not utter a single word in his National Assembly speech on the Model Town tragedy. In an interview with a private TV channel by phone, the former premier said that Nawaz Sharif played a dirty game against him in the Parliament. "I wish that Nawaz Sharif would have respected the supremacy of the Parliament when I was disqualified," Gilani said.
To a question, he said the prime minister wasted too much time to resolve this crisis. "We have always supported democracy, law and constitution," he stated. About the prime minister's speech, Gilani was of the view that Nawaz Sharif should not undermine state institutions. He said he had not wasted even a single second and stepped down after the Supreme Court's ruling. Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif should have resigned after the Model Town incident, he added.
