ISLAMABAD: Opposition leader in National Assembly (NA) Syed Khurshid Shah has said his party wants elimination of additional clauses inserted by Zia ul Haq in article 63 and they will not support any amendment in article 62 and 63 of the constitution to save Nawaz Sharif.
“Government wants amendment in articles 62 and 63 to save Nawaz Sharif. But these articles are part of the constitution and will not be eliminated at any costâ€, he said this while talking to media men in the chamber of opposition leader in NA Wednesday.
He went on to say government should respect court’s decisions and remove any notion from its mind about introducing any amendment in the constitution to save personalities. Even then if government wants to make amendment, PPP will not lend any support to government in this regard.
“We don’t want elimination of articles 62 and 63 but we want that additional clauses which were inserted by Zia ul Haq are repealedâ€, he remarked.
It is matter of regret that government is not paying any attention to US president statement, he said adding government should demonstrate responsibility and make public News leak report.
