LAHORE, May 14: Pakistan People’s Party Punjab information secretary Amir Raja has said PML-N president Nawaz Sharif is a supporter of dictatorship.

“Those demanding resignation from Prime Minister Gilani should not forget their own past,” he said, adding the Punjab government was being run on a stay order.

In a statement issued here on Monday, Raja said participation of a large number of people in PPP rallies was a befitting response to PML-N.

He said the PPP always worked for the supremacy of law and constitution.

He said members of PML-N violated the law, as most fake degree holders belonged to this party.
