Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Quaid Mian Nawaz Sharif Tuesday said that the issue of Hazara Division is a big challenge for all national political leadership and it should be resolved amicably. He said that innocent lives should not be lost to do politics on the issue of NWFP name.
Nawaz Sharif chaired a consultative meeting held on Tuesday at the Punjab House to review the prevailing tense situation in Abbotabad. The meeting was attended by Raja Zafar ul Haq, Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan, Ahsan Iqbal, Iqbal Zafar Jhagra, Pir Sabir Shah and other senior leaders. He said that those political parties that were rejected by the people would not be allowed to resort to violence in the Hazara Division. Nawaz urged all political parties to sit together to find an acceptable and immediate solution to the problem.
He said his party has shown flexibility on the renaming of NWFP, as it does not want to create hurdles in the passage of 18th Amendment for the sake of provincial autonomy and restoration of the Constitution. "Our party will speak to the elders of Hazara Division to bring the situation under control," he said.
