LARKANA, Dec 26: PML-Q general-secretary Senator Mushahid Hussain Syed has said that the ARD and the MMA are lending support to the government on the issue-to-issue basis.
Talking to journalists in Ratodero on Monday, he said the PPP supported the government on the women’s rights bill and the JUI helped in striking an agreement in Waziristan.
He said the next elections would be held in fair, free and transparent manner in the due course of time and people’s mandate would be honoured and majority party would be offered to form the government.
Terming Maulana Fazul Rehman’s step of not resigning from parliament a wise decision, he said all parities were principally agreed on one point agenda that the forthcoming general election should be held on the scheduled programme.
He said that the Pakistan Muslim League believed in democracy and was trying its utmost to strengthening democratic system in the country.
The government welcomed actions of the PPP and the MMA leadership for saving the democratic system in the country, he said.
He said the government had adopted new norms in the NWFP.
The chief minister belonged to the MMA, but the federal government was providing necessary funds for the development of the province.
Replying to another question regarding the rights of the people of Sindh, he said “a foresighted, brave and religious-minded chief minister leads Sindh and is working according the wishes of the people of the province”.
Sindh’s people instead of protesting over the development on islands, should be happy as progress over there would benefit them.
He said that the rights of the minority community were safeguarded in the Constitution.
