KOHAT, May 20: Office-bearers of Pakistan People’s Party have asked the government to immediately restore the 1973 Constitution in its original form.

District Bar Association President Malik Iqbal said during a visit to a hunger strike camp of lawyers organized by the PPP that the Legal Framework Order was unacceptable to the political parties.

PPP’s divisional president Nadir Khan Khattak said that the president should leave his army post and get himself elected from parliament constitutionally.

He demanded that PPP Chairperson Benazir Bhutto be allowed to return to the country and former senator Asif Ali Zardari be released.
