Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz has said that there is no government-PPP understanding on the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO), as the ordinance is not a party or person specific. "There is no understanding with any individual or specific party and the NRO is for all and was aimed at national reconciliation", he told a private TV channel.
The Prime Minister also rejected the assumption that the PML would have an election alliance with the PPP in the forthcoming general elections, saying, the two parties are separate entities. He said that the PML and allied parties will contest the next general elections on the basis of their performance in office, while the other parties will go to masses with their respective manifestos. The Prime Minister said the NRO was aimed at creating a congenial political environment in the country and eliminate the past vindictive and negative politics.
