\nAwami Muslim League (AML) chief Sheikh Rashid says the country\u2019s politics will be in the decisive phase from Aug 1. Taking to Twitter, the former interior minister said the judiciary could give important decisions in line with the constitution and law.
\n\u201cThe decisions of judiciary are being mocked publicly. There is no respect for law, constitution and justice in the country these days,\u201d he lamented. He said amendments to Article 224 and 230 were contrary to the constitution and therefore, the judiciary shouldn\u2019t remain silent on it.
\nThe senior politician said the name of Ishaq Dar as nominee for caretaker prime minister became controversial the moment it was suggested. Criticising the prime minister, the AML chief said Shehbaz Sharif was playing on both sides of the wicket and he was deceiving his brother.
\n\u201cShehbaz wants the caretaker government to act as his interim government but his wish will not be fulfilled,\u201d he added. \u201cIt is not democracy to pass 29 bills in just one hour as this legislation has been done on the pressure of someone,\u201d Rashid said.
\nHe said the country was going through the darkest time in the history. The residences of people were attacked brazenly and children and women were picked up before moving them to undisclosed locations, he deplored.
\n\u201cPeople can remain silent on this cruelty for their survival and honour but they will teach a lesson to these rulers on the polling day,\u201d he reiterated. He was of the view that all the nominees for caretaker prime minister could fail and the matter might land in the Election Commission of Pakistan.
\nNawaz Sharif had gone to London after giving his nominee for caretaker prime minister instead of coming back to Pakistan, he said. It would be really difficult for these rulers to go to the public, he said, as they could not go outside without the protocol of 50 vehicles.
\n\u201cThe government has managed to quash all the cases of corruption and money laundering in violation of the Supreme Court orders,\u201d the former minister said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
