Opposition Wants Imran’s Resignation

via https://youtu.be/Ztn4rf7Hq2s The opposition parties on Sunday upped the ante against the PTI led federal government as they demanded immediate resignation of Prime Minister Imran Khan, while announcing an alliance – the Pakistan Democratic Movement – that will begin a country-wide protest against the government. In the PPP-hosted All Parties Conference (APC), the opposition also ratcheted up its narrative against alleged rigging in the July 2018 general election and demanded that the powerful establishment should not only refrain from interfering in politics but also confine its role as defined in the Constitution. Through a 26-point resolution and a seven-point action plan issued after the APC in a press conference, the opposition parties put forward their demands, including free, fair, transparent elections without any role of the armed forces and agencies. In the first phase, the opposition parties would muster support from lawyers, traders, farmers, students, civil society, media and people and hold joint rallies in all the provinces by October In the second phase, they will hold bigger protest rallies in December and will go for a “decisive long march” to Islamabad in January 2021. For this purpose, a special committee was being formed, which would finalize the action plan. After a day-long grand huddle, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif, JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman along with others read the resolution and the action plan. Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, former president Asif Ali Zardari as well as the top leadership of the PPP, the PML-N, the JUI-F, the NP, the ANP, the QWP, PkMAP, the BNP-M and Jamiat Ahle Hadees spoke at the APC. The opposition parties also demanded that a new accountability law should be made in line with the recent judgment of the Supreme Court, recommendations of the Council of Islamic Ideology and reports of the human right watch in order to ensure accountability across the board. They also decided to form a committee that will review the Charter of Democracy and present a strategy which is in line with the Quaid-e-Azam’s statements and 73’s Constitution to lay the foundation of a modern Islamic welfare state.
