Summary PML-Q Leader challenges Shahbaz Sharif to public debate on 'bank defaulter allegation'
LAHORE: (Dunya News) – Pakistan Muslim League (Q) President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain has said that the government has imposed a ‘Civil Martial Law’ in the country. He said that the current government will not be able to hold on to power till 31st of August.
While talking to a press conference at his residence in Lahore today (Thursday), Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain said that two trucks and a jeep were enough to topple the government if Army really wanted to do so. He advised the government not to turn Model Town into ‘Jalianwala Baagh’.
PML-Q Senator warned the government that ‘revolution march’ will go to Islamabad via ‘Jaati Umra’ (Sharif family’s residence) if government tried to frustrate ‘Martyrs Day’. It is evident from the prevailing situation in the country that there is no democracy here, said Shujaat Hussain.
Chaudhry Shujaat accused Chief Minister Punjab Shahbaz Sharif of inciting people to violence during the previous tenure. He said that Shahbaz Sharif had brought people out on roads against load shedding during Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) government. “Shahbaz Sharif talked of dragging Asif Zardari on roads, were his words harsher or Tahirul Qadri’s”, asked Shujaat Hussain.
Responding to Shahbaz Sharif’s allegation on Chaudhry brothers of being bank defaulters, PML-Q President challenged him for a public debate on the subject.
Shujaat reiterated the resolve to hold ‘revolution march’ predicting that Pakistan People’s Party and Jamaat-i-Islami will also join hands with PML-Q and Tahirul Qadri.
Former Prime Minister of Pakistan said that though the government talks of reconciliation in Islamabad, it is using force in Lahore against the opposition. Chaudhry Shujaat said that he did not fear arrests. “We have been dealing with arrests since Bhutto’s era”, said Shujaat.
