A spokesman for President General Pervez Musharraf strongly refuted on Sunday all speculations regarding change in the government and a deal with an opposition party. He was commenting on repeated reports to this effect in a section of the media.
Regretting that such reports continue to be printed and telecast despite clear denials from various levels of the government, the spokesman asserted that the President had categorically and repeatedly stated that the government was functioning successfully and noticeable progress had been achieved on many fronts.
This government will face the electorate with confidence in the coming elections, he said and advised every one including the opposition to concentrate on the forthcoming elections which would be manifestly fair and transparent. Anybody creating confusion at this stage was clearly doing disservice to the democratic process, he regretted.
Responding to reports regarding a deal with an opposition party, the spokesman clarified that all political parties had an equal opportunity to contest the elections freely under the law and no concession or deal was offered to any. He hoped that all speculations to this effect will now be put to rest.-PR
