LAHORE: Both Pervaiz Elahi and Arbab Ghulam Rahim are political rogues and they should refrain from making irrational statements, which are inciting public sentiments at this critical hour, said PPP leaders including Qasim Zia and Naveed Chaudhry.
Addressing a press conference here on Sunday, the PPP leaders added both the former chief ministers wanted to create rift among the people of the two provinces. This could prove dangerous for the federation, they claimed.
Qasim Zia alleged both the leaders intended to create chaos and anarchy in the country. This would ultimately lead to another postponement of the polls that would seriously damage the federation, he claimed.
He further said the PPP had faced the most tragic incident of history when its leader and a symbol of the federation’s unity, Benazir Bhutto, was assassinated. Even then, PPP workers showed patience, they claimed, adding that the PPP did not believe in dividing the country.
Qasim Zia said that Pervaiz Elahi should not create further chaos in the country.
He also alleged that the PML wanted to incite the sentiments of provincial disharmony and that the language being used by PML leaders might push the federation towards disintegration.
Naveed Chaudhry, in his address, said the problems faced by the country were due to the policies of the PML government. The PML government, under its leader, could not increase the power generation by even one megawatt, he said, adding that the claims of Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi to construct mini dams remained confined to statements and no practical step was taken in this regard.
Naveed Chaudhry also said the country would face another food crisis in the near future. He predicted that the Q-League was about to disintegrate in a few days and the need of the hour was to keep the nation united rather than create fissures.
