Information Minister, Sherry Rehman on Saturday said announcement to launch a long march by the lawyers is their democratic right, a private TV channel reported. Talking to a private TV channel after the announcement of long march on June 10 by lawyers, she said it is a move aimed at demanding rights and it is in no way an undemocratic step.
To a question as to what steps the government is going to plan in this situation, she said it is a bit premature to say anything in this regard. The government is not going to adopt a path of confrontation and decisions will be taken accordingly in case of confrontation by the other side, she added. Utmost efforts will be made to avert a clash," Sherry Rehman reiterated.
