Mian Manzoor Ahmed Wattoo, President Punjab PPP, in a statement issued here on Sunday complimented Senator Atizaz Ehsan and Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan for burying the hatchet and moving forward for the sake of creating an enabling political environment in the country conducive to the Constitution, rule of law and democracy.
The agitating parties and the government should take a leaf from the recent scuffling between Chaughry Aitzaz Ehsan and Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan and put cold water on their ego in the interest of the Constitution, democracy and rule of law, he said.
Mian Manzoor Ahmed Wattoo said that the present crisis was also the test of the agitating parties and the governments to prove their democratic credentials adding the people of the country were watching them to formulate their experienced-based opinion about them.
The overwhelming silent majority will express their opprobrium in the shape of inflicting embarrassing electoral debacle on them if they fail to prove their worth as the true believers in democratic dispensation, he opined.
He pointed out that the nation had been passing through an ordeal for the last many days and the apathy of the agitating parties and the mandarins was most unfortunate and indeed unforgiving.
The nation is on its knees because the image of the country has taken nosedive after this 'tamasha'. The colossal damages to the economy and above all the postponement of the visit of the Chinese President to Pakistan have put the country in a tight corner of isolation, he commented.
