SUKKUR: Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khurshid Shah has said that those trying to weaken are not sincere with Pakistan and they need to mend their ways.
Addressing a ceremony in Sukkur on Saturday, he said that attempts were also being made to create a rift between the parliament and the institutions which was unfair.
He said that dreams of development and progress could not be materialized till the people of the country will get their rights.
Khursheed Shah also lashed out at former president Pervez Musharraf and asked him to return to the country and face the cases against him rather than issuing statements from abroad.
He advised Musharraf, “Return to the country like Benazir did, do politics like Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto did and spend time in prison like Asif Ali Zardari did.”
Taunting the former president’s self-imposed exile, the Opposition Leader said, “We didn’t go abroad, we aren’t scared.” Khurshid Shah also raised question about the timing of Musharraf’s statements and asked why the former president remained quiet for 10 years. Earlier on Friday, PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari had also asked Musharraf to return Pakistan if he is brave.
