Faisal Kundi questions Fazlur Rehman’s reconciliation efforts

Islamabad: Secretary Information Pakistan People’s Party, Faisal Karim Kundi in a reaction to the media talk of Maulana Fazlur Rehman has said that if Maulana wants reconciliation then he should tell us who wanted to club the resignations with the long march and who is responsible for not complying with the action plan of the PDM.

In a statement Kundi said that Maulana Fazlur Rehman had usurped the opposition leader position in the 2002 assembly despite the fact that the majority in the opposition was of the PPP. He said that Maulana should not turn a political alliance of PDM into a political party. The rules of a political party cannot be rules for the political alliance.

Kundi said that it is ironic that Maulana is unaware that after issuing show cause to the PPP and the ANP, it was leaked to the media and the public. He said that the majority party has the right to bring its own member as the opposition leader in the National Assembly and the Senate. The PPP had supported PML-N for opposition leader in the National Assembly because PML-N had the majority of opposition members. PML-N already holds two important positions, that of leader of the opposition and chairman Public accounts committee. Now the PML-N cannot grab every opposition position and dictate other opposition political parties. Why are PML-N and JUI not resigning now, he asked.
