LALAMUSA: Pakistan Peoples Party, Information Secretary and former Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Qamar Zaman Kaira said President Asif Ali Zardari is well now and he will resume his responsibilities as soon as the doctors allow him to do so.

The president told Kaira from Dubai via telephone on Saturday that the PPP leaders and workers were always ready to face all national issues.

Zardari directed Kaira to deliver his massage to the workers that they should face the situation with patience and it was the policy of the party to keep all political parties with it under the reconciliation policy.

Later, Qamar Zaman Kaira while talking to the media and several delegations at Daira Kaira, said that Mian Nawaz Sharif, PML-N President had become politically isolated as no party was supporting him and now he was seeking help from nationalist parties.

He said that Mian Shahbaz Sharif went abroad after every couple of months for treatment but the PPP had never discussed his visits, adding that it was unfortunate that some people were searching conspiracies in the illness of the president instead of praying for him.

He said there was a tension between the United States and Pakistan after the Nato attack and national unity was the need of the time in such a condition. He added that those forces were achieving their goals by spreading rumours with the intention of weakening the country.
