A inept person elected due to unnatural alliance of PPP, PTI: Tariq

ISLAMABAD: State Minister for Capital Administration and Development Division (CADD) Dr Tariq Fazal Chaudhry Monday claimed that an inept person had elected for chairman of the Senate due to unnatural alliance of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).

Talking to a private news channel, he said Raza Rabbani was most suitable person for the chairmanship of Senate.

He observed Sadiq Sanjrani's stature was not equal to Raza Rabbani or Raja Zafar ul Haq and PTI and PPP had proved that they were political orphans parties, adding that Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz Leadership had presented unconditional support to Raza Rabbani due to his services and work to supremacy of law in the country.

He said winning of Sadiq Sanjrani was not defeat of the government but it was defeat of democratic norms.

The minister said Raja Zafar ul haq was a loyal and seasoned politician and he was with the begum Kalsoom Nawaz during the dictatorial era of former president Gen (R) Pervez Musharraf.

He said PML-N was a matured political party and its leadership was raising voice for the sanctity of vote in the country.

He said rift was created in PPP on the name of Sadiq Sanjrani and ignorance of Raza Rabbani for the Senate chairman.

Tariq chaudhry said people were well aware about that which political party was responsible for introducing derogatory language in the country's politics, adding that the PML-N leadership had never used indecent words against others.
