No country will lend a helping hand to rulers: Elahi

21 Nov, 2016

Terming the month of December as important for the country, Pakistan Muslim League-Q (PML-Q) senior leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Chaudhry Pervez Elahi Sunday said that "no country will come to rescue our corrupt rulers."
He said this while responding to questions from media after offering condolence and "fateha" for the departed soul of PPP leader late Jehangir Badr at his residence.
Ali Badr and Jahanzaib Badr sons of late Jehangir Badr, PML-Q leaders, Mian Munir, Dr Azeemuddin Lakhvi, Shadab Jaffery advocate were also present on this occasion.
Paying tributes to Jehangir Badr, Elahi said the late was a straight forward and experienced politician and his services for his party cannot be forgotten. Even in most difficult time and till last moment, the late remained loyal with the party, PML-Q leader said.
Elahi claimed that people are earnestly praying for getting rid of corrupt rulers. "All eyes and hopes of entire nation are pinned on the Supreme Court, coming month (December) is very important during which many decisions will be taken and this will also be ascertained as to whether or not 2017 is the year of election."
Replying to a question, he said the rulers bring letter of one Prince then of the other one, this one is of Prince Saifur Rehman's letter.
Elahi said the incumbent rulers are in power in Punjab for the last 15 years but they have done nothing for people's welfare.
To another query, Elahi said that Panama Leaks case is in the Supreme Court as such it is not appropriate to talk about this matter; however, opposition is not on one page.
He said Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain had said nothing will happen till the opposition gets united, we will continue efforts for their unity.
He said Tehreek-e-Insaf has produced same ToRs in the Supreme Court which were formulated unanimously by the opposition. If opposition parties do not unite then all will suffer, he warned.
