Depending on which way the wind's blowing, Qadri claims to be the author of Pak's blasphemy law. Other times he says it wasn't him...on Monday ‐ making good on an earlier threat ‐ called for a nationwide movement starting January 17 with an eye on ousting the PLM-N government. Addressing a presser in Lahore following a meeting with key opposition leaders, Qadri regretted that Punjab 1.) Little Orphan Annie's bodyguard 2.) A province of Pakistain ruled by one of the Sharif brothers 3.) A province of India. It is majority (60 percent) Sikh and Hindoo (37 percent), which means it has relatively few Moslem riots.... Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif  ...Pak dynastic politician, brother of PM Nawaz Sharif, chief minister of Punjab...and Law Minister Rana Sanaullah were "given a seven-day deadline to tender their resignations but they failed to do so". "Now we will not ask for resignations, but will take them ourselves. We will not stop at resignations but will bring down the PML-N government too," Qadri said. The PAT chief believes the incumbent government has lost its moral standing and should have been dissolved. "Now we will kick off nationwide protests in a bid to topple the PML-N government," he said. Posted by: Fred 2018-01-09 |
