Why PTI is waiting for Dec 20 when it has decided to dissolve assemblies: Interior Minister

ISLAMABAD, Dec 01 (Online): Interior minister Rana Sana Ullah has said PTI has decided to dissolve assemblies then why they are waiting for December 20.

“ if assemblies are dissolved then by polls will be held in respect of these two assemblies. General election will take place in time. Making announcement in public meetings regarding dissolution of assemblies is undemocratic and unconstitutional. Their blackmailing will not be accepted in any way, he said this while addressing a press conference here Thursday.

He held accepting the responsibility of Quetta attack by TTP is matter of grave concern. A lot of talks were held with TTP. But when one faction gets prepared to return then the second faction starts attacking. I strongly condemn the terror attack in Balochistan. Accepting the responsibility of this incident by TTP is regrettable and condemnable and is matter of grave concern for neighboring countries. The matter is highly regrettable but we will overcome the terrorists soon.

He remarked that non attending the meeting by chief minister KP held under Prime Minister on security is regrettable. KP government should take steps for initiating action against the elements involved in terrorism. The federation will extend every help and assistance to the provincial governments.

He said Imran Khan is trying to slide the country into instability. Imran Khan stole watches from Toshakhana and sold out them outside the country. Imran Khan set the meanest precedent of corruption. Imran Khan suffered historical failure on November 26 in Rawalpindi. Imran Khan claimed to mount Islamabad but he did not courage to do so.

He observed Imran Khan talks of dissolving the provincial assemblies then he should resign from Senate and president should also resign. Now this thing has come from PTI that resignations will be given from assemblies on December 20. Why the matter is being delayed for 20 days. The policy of this man is to take the country towards instability because the process of dissolution of assemblies is highly non political.

Rana Sana Ullah said if the assemblies are dissolved then we will hold by polls in 90 days. We will complete our tenure at every cost. They should resign from national assembly before dissolving the assemblies and vacate the parliament lodges. The PTI people should leave the facilities which they are enjoying.

Our armed forces and institutions are ready to face the terrorists. The provincial governments should adopt serous strategy for the establishment of peace.

He further said with reference to TTP the military leadership gave briefing to members of assembly twice on the matter of talks with them. The parliament allowed to hold talks with TTP within constitutional parameters.

Forcefull operations by armed forces are underway, he indicated adding army jawans are embracing shahadat in these operations.

He held family members of Arshid Sharif did not express confidence on the commission constituted by the government to probe into murder of Arshid Sharif.

The government has requested the Supreme Court to constitute commission to probe into murder of Arshid Sharif. It is hoped Supreme Court will soon form fact finding commission, he held.
