Minister warns against any unconstitutional move against president

RECORDER REPORT

LAHORE: Federal Minister for Kashmir Affairs, Gilgit and Baltistan, Mian Manzoor Wattoo said unconstitutional removal of President Zardari would cost Nawaz Sharif an arm and a leg, as he would have to go on exile for another 20 years. He was talking to media at Pakistan Sweet Homes Lahore Saturday.

He advised the Sharif brothers to opt for constitutional ways and bring impeachment motion against President Zardari provided they have required number of votes in the parliament. He also criticised Punjab government for becoming part of agitation instead of looking after the law and order situation in the province.

He further said that Punjab government has pleaded for deferment of elections on the seat of Azad Jammu & Kashmir (AJK) assembly on account of law and order and posed a question that how the same government could ask for midterm polls.
