Pakistan Muslim League (PML) Secretary-General Senator Mushahid Hussain Syed has said there is no threat of disintegration of the party, but admitted that there is difference of opinion over Musharraf's re-election in the PML-Q.
In an interview with a private TV channel, he said the PML is a democratic party, where people can voice their differences to a certain policy of the party leadership.
Mushahid said they have held almost six meetings of the Central Working Committee, Central Executive Committee and Policy Planning Group over the last three months and there was very open discussion on all the issues.
To a question, he said there are various options in which some people say that elections should be held earlier while other suggest that these should be held late. "That is part of the debate we hold but there is no such plan for the early dissolution", he added.
To another question, he said the Constitution allows President Musharraf to be in uniform till the end of the current year so the Constitution would be followed. The MMA did support that under the 17th Amendment, he added.
He said for the first time the assemblies would complete their five-year term and even the opposition government was tolerated in the NWFP, and the credit goes to the present federal government and especially President Musharraf. To another question, Mushahid said he was the only Senator, who rejected the portfolios offered to him and then he was elected the PML secretary-general.
He said: "We have asked all the parties to come and decide the rules of the game and asked for the comments on the election commissioner because that is very important.
