ISLAMABAD Jan 14: Pakistan Muslim League-QA has decided to move Supreme Court in case the Election Commission refuses to register it as the PML.

“The party will present its case for recognition as Pakistan Muslim League and if the commission rejected our request we will move the supreme court,” Qa information secretary Abida Hussain, after a party meeting presided over by Mian Azhar, said here on Sunday.

She told reporters that the meeting had also decided to reorganise the party to ensure success in the forthcoming general elections.

“We have further decided to adopt military government’s slogan with slight modification as “Pehlay Pakistan - and Khushhal Pakistan” as election slogan in the next polls,” she said and added that a committee would be constituted to look for suitable candidates for the next polls.

The meeting was attended among others by Gohar Ayub Khan, Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, Lt Gen (Rtd) .Abdul Majeed Malik, Fakhr Imam, Naeem Chatha, Ghaus Bakhsh Mahar, Salim Saifullah Khan, Jam Yusuf, Raja Aurangzeb, Neelofar Bakhtiar, Capt Haleem Siddiqi, Sardar Yusuf, Sardar Mansoor Hayat Taman and Azim Chaudhry.

Begum Abida said that the central working committee would endorse the decisions of the meeting before formal launching of party’s electioneering campaign.

“The question of reunification of various PML factions was also discussed and it was decided that fresh efforts would be made to get the estranged party colleagues back,” she maintained. “Instead of updating the manifesto, fundamental changes will be brought in it.”

To a question, the PML(QA) leader said only those were power hungry who were earlier forced by late Gen. Ziaul Haq to form PML while the PML(QA) had been launched by its leadership on sound political grounds.
