Qadri resigns
Pakistan Awami Tehrik (PAT) Chairman Dr Allama Tahirul Qadri on Friday announced his resignation from the National Assembly to protest the passage of the two-offices bill that allows President Pervez Musharraf to continue as army chief beyond December 31. "I hereby resign from my National Assembly seat, NA 127, under the illegal rule of the uniform," Dr Qadri said in his resignation statement, adding that he felt insulted to sit in a house which passed a bill to perpetuate the rule of a dictator.
