No more packing up of the Parliament: Zardari


Islamabad: Alongside the backdrop of tense relations with the judges, Pakistan President Asif Ali Zardari has assert that the era of "packing the Parliament from end to end back door" was in excess of.

A day following Yousuf Raza Gilani's disqualification by the Supreme Court, Zardari supposed the people know how to make sure the supremacy of Parliament and the Constitution.

The age of "packing the Parliament through the back entrance" by using the defunct Article 58 of the Constitution is over for all times and "no back doors and surface doors will be allowed to be reopened for distribution the elected parliamentarians home", Zardari supposed

"Our people will also not suffer a fate thrust upon them by militants and extremists in the name of religion or in some other name," he additional.

His message came yesterday on the eve of the 59th birth anniversary of his slain companion, former leader Benazir Bhutto.

On Tuesday, a three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry ineligible Gilani in response to several petitions that had challenged Speaker Fehmida Mirza's decision not to disqualify the leader following his conviction of contempt.

The peak court had convicted Gilani of contempt in April for refuse to reopen graft cases in Switzerland alongside Zardari.

Zardari reiterate the PPP's commitment to the supremacy of Parliament and the Constitution and the "building of a modern, egalitarian and pluralistic civilization in which everyone is allowed chance to help shape his or her own fate".

Noting that the PPP had survive the "judicial murder" of its creator, Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, and the abuse of judicial processes to hound Benazir Bhutto, Zardari supposed the party will "continue to defy odds and grow from strength to power".
