Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani and PML-N leader Nawaz Sharif, who met in Raiwind on Sunday, were totally in unison on implementing the charter of democracy (CoD) and removal of 17th Amendment in the constitution.
They held two rounds of talk, besides having lunch, and were reported to be in the mood of taking national reconciliation further in the interest of the country. Prime Minister Gilani said that to meet economic, political and extremism challenges, this was vital.
Addressing a press conference along with Nawaz Sharif, the Prime Minister said that he had met Nawaz with a message of goodwill from Federal Government, President Asif Ali Zardari and himself. He said they had firm belief in implementation of Charter of Democracy that was the agenda of both parties.
The Prime Minister and Nawaz Sharif congratulated the nation on the reinstatement of judiciary. They said the entire nation had embarked on this path for the last two years and their role was commendable.
Nawaz said it was not the defeat or victory of anybody, and added that after 60 years this mega change had come. He said the delivery of justice was their goal and there was no other aim or objective beside this. Nawaz Sharif said "No", in replying to a question whether there would be another long march against Governor rule.
Gilani said that he himself was against Governor rule, and added that they had gone to court against disqualification judgement of Nawaz Sharif and Shahbaz Sharif, and if there was a delay in decision, any body which proves majority in the assembly should for the government. He said that in the changed scenario, Nawaz himself could become party in the legal suit.
On relations with President Asif Ali Zardari, Nawaz said that they had no personal grudge and if there was anything, it was on principles. He said implementing Charter of Democracy would smoothen everything down. He applauded the entire nation and all segments involved in the democratic struggle for reinstatement of judiciary.
Earlier in the day, the Prime Minister arrived in Raiwind in a helicopter, and was welcomed by Nawaz Sharif and others. Shahbaz Sharif, Nisar Ali Khan, Ishaq Dar, and Kh Asif were there in the meeting with Yousuf Raza Gillani.
