The PPP Urges Government to Dissolve National Assembly and Conduct Fresh Elections amidst growing political tensions. PPP Secretary General Nayyar Hussain Bukhari emphasized the need for a fresh mandate if the government feels threatened.
Nayyar Hussain Bukhari stated, “If the government perceives a threat, it should dissolve the assembly and initiate new elections.” He suggested that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif should send an advisory to President Asif Ali Zardari to dissolve the assembly and pave the way for elections.
Nayyar Hussain Bukhari expressed concerns about the government’s reluctance to communicate its issues with the PPP. “PPP is ready to strengthen the government in Parliament, but it should deliver something meaningful. President Asif Ali Zardari has repeatedly stated his willingness to mediate discussions and play a constructive role, but there must be a willingness to engage in dialogue,” Nayyar Hussain Bukhari said.
He cautioned that any derailment of the political system could harm the country. The PPP leader also reflected on the party’s acceptance of the election results, despite having reservations. “We accepted the election results with reservations. If we hadn’t supported the PML-N, would the parliament and the Chief Executive’s office be functioning today?” he questioned, underscoring the PPP’s role in stabilizing the government.
