Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khursheed Ahmed Shah on Monday said that PML-N government should avoid threatening and raising questions on the institutions. The Opposition Leader expressed these views while speaking on the floor of the National Assembly regarding the Quetta Attack Judicial Commission Report.
He said, "The judges of the Supreme Court should know that it is not Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) government whose prime minister had been hanged and workers were whipped. But it is the PML-N government, which had attacked the Supreme Court when it gave judgement against it."
The Opposition Leader said, "A minister is saying that he would challenge the report of the Commission and it is not a good tradition. For the first time a report of the Judicial Commission was made public but it was severely criticised." He said that PPP has clear-cut policy about the terrorism and it always used to mention those things which were written in the report of the Judicial Commission. The PPP always said that the PML-N government is not implementing the National Action Plan (NAP) in its letter and in sprit, he added.
Khursheed Shah said the opposition always co-operated with the government on the NAP and stood by it. But the government did not do any work on the NAP and National Counter Terrorism Authority (Necta), he said. He said, "On one hand the PML-N government beat the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers when they tried to hold their convention, while on the other a banned organisation was holding it public gathering in Islamabad." About Panama Papers, he said that the PML-N has itself created this issue by asking the Prime Minister to address the nation twice. He said, "We ignored a big incident of plane crash due to the issue of Panama Papers."
