Pashtun­khwa Milli Awami Party chief Mahmood Khan Achakzai has claimed that the establishment was playing with the Constitution of the country.

“Today is the first day of the National Assembly […] you should now pass four resolutions that the establishment and security institutions will have no role in the politics of Pakistan,” he said.

“Otherwise we will thrash them with the power of the public,” Achakzai said.

“From the formation of Pakistan, the fight between democratic and non-democratic forces has been going on,” he recalled, adding that the PML-N, PPP and PTI should draft a resolution and declare judges who opposed martial law as “heroes”.
