HYDERABAD, Jan 9: Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz) candidate for NA-220 Shabbir Hassan Ansari has said that the only way to extricate the country from the multidimensional crisis it is faced with is resignation by Pervez Musharraf, formation of a consensus national government and dissolution of local governments.
Addressing a news conference at the press club on Tuesday, Mr Ansari demanded that the governors of Sindh and Punjab should be removed, the partisan election staff should be replaced, all the polling stations in Hyderabad should be declared sensitive and army should be deployed at the polling stations.
He said that the country was passing through a critical phase with one man ruling the country, a civil war like situation in the NWFP and Balochistan and lawlessness in the Punjab and Sindh.
Mr Ansari said that the move to keep judges of superior courts in wrongful confinement had no parallel in the history of the world. It had been done only to complete Pervez Musharraf’s agenda, he added.
He said that on the one hand people were groaning under the weight of price hike and running from pillar to post for flour while on the other frequent power breakdowns had made their lives miserable.
