ROHRI: Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly (NA) Khurshid Shah considered International Court of Justice’s (ICJ) verdict on convicted Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav a failure of the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) government.
He deemed it ‘numbness’ to not mention Kulbhushan Jadhav once at United Nations (UN).
The Pakistan People’s Party lawmaker held a media talk while attending the inauguration ceremony of a solar pumping station. He described ICJ’s verdict as a defeat of Pakistan’s foreign policy and government expressing his doubts about Nawaz-Jindal meeting in Murree.
He also argued that Bilawal Bhutto’s demand of appointing a foreign minister was taken lightly but it proved to be his far sightedness. “Government has been completing ignoring the Foreign Ministry,” he told.
While raising the issue of provincial divide, he claimed that Nawaz-government would be responsible if any damage is done to the federation by creating hostility between small and large provinces. He said “Nawaz Sharif ended all development projects for small provinces after coming to power.”
He further reaffirmed about how the Qatari letter was rejected by all five judges of the Supreme Court (SC) bench. Opposition Leader called Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar an ‘innocent man’ who raises voice when something happens in Sindh while keeps quiet in reaction to similar events happening in Lahore, Islamabad and elsewhere.
He forgot Model Town incident, attacks on D-Chowk and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan’s home while expresses anger on dispersing Pakistan Sarzameen Party (PSP)’s protest using water cannon.
