Pakistan People's Party would welcome the construction of Kalabagh dam if it is constructed with the consensus on all the four provinces and government should put this issue in the Parliament for debate instead of dividing the nation into factions, said Qasim Zia Provincial President of PPP Punjab.
While talking to newsmen at the residence of Syed Rafi Shah in Shershah on Thursday. He said that whole nation would resist if the dams were constructed without consensus.
He hinted that a forward bloc is developing in Punjab Assembly after National Assembly and PPPP would support these blocs at appropriate time.
To a Question he said that Central Executive Council (CEC) would fix the final date for the arrival of Benazir Bhutto and she would come back to home before Elections.
He said that present government was afraid of the parliament and it was promulgating ordinances in the presence of Assembly. Present regime could not constitute the Council of Common interest so far. He said that PPP was contesting by election in four districts while in Sheikhupura PML-N/ARD nominee was contesting.
Though we have won the election at voters level but we would have to see computer results. He said that Show of Hand for the election of Naib Nazims was in fact a no-confidence on the elected councillors.
Earlier he addressed a meeting in Shershah which was also attended by Naveed Chaudhry, Provincial Information Secretary, Malik Salahuddin Dogar, Khurshid Ahmed Khan, Khawaja Rizwan Alam, Malik Arshan Ran, MPA, Mohsin Qureshi (District President of PPPP Muzaffargarh), Khawaja Mudassar (Dera Ghazi Khan), Chaudhry Sarwar Abbas (Rajanpur) Engr: Bilal Khar (Kot Addu) Hashim Khan Babur.

Qasim Zia said that a person who distorted the 1973 constitution cannot provide constitutional protection to the Kalabagh dam or any other issues.
Bitterly criticising the Punjab Chief Minister Qasim Zia said that he got approved a resolution in favour of uniform and injured the sanctity of an elected institution and empowered General Pervez Musharraf to decide about the National Finance Commission (NFC) award. He said that we are not against the dams and water reservoirs these must be constructed but we would not let anyone destroying the country at the cost of reservoirs.
Naveed Chaudhry said that a General had dismembered the country on December 16 (today) 36 years ago now another General was trying to dismember the country by raising the Kalabagh dam issue which is a bone of contention. He said that attack on Kohlu meeting on December 14 was an eye opener for the rulers who were beating the drum of 'Sab Accha Hay' and now government had completed its planning for military operation in Balochistan.
