Faction of Pakistan Muslim League supports referendum
  • The PML-Q will support the proposed referendum for the sake of restoration of democracy in the country. This was stated by PML-Q central leader Ejazul Haq on Saturday. He said a PML delegation had apprised president Pervez Musharraf of all pros and cons of his proposed referendum. The president should be elected through direct public votes instead of parliamentarians so that he could be accountable to them, he said. He supported policies of the Musharraf government after the Sept 11 with the only exception of supporting US bombardment in Afghanistan. He opposed the induction of technocrats in the national assembly saying they should be inducted in senate only. The PML-Q would make alliance with religious parties in the forthcoming general election, he claimed.
    Here's one Qazi hasn't gotten to yet... Be careful starting your car, Ejazul.
