RAWALPINDI – AML chairman Sheikh Rashid on Wednesday(march-01) said if the SC’s verdict was not acted upon, it would lead to bloodshed in the country.
The apex court had, earlier, ordered authorities to hold general elections in Punjab & KP in 90-days after the dissolution of the assemblies as CJP Umar Ata Bandial had taken suo motu notice of the date for elections in the province.
Taking to Twitter, he wrote, “Today is the most important day of Pakistan’s democracy as it will decide whether Pakistan attains social, political, & economic stability or droops into the political divide. Political instability has moved the IMF into imposing 4 stringent conditions like that of 1998, Moody’s downgrading of Pakistan’s rating, & raising concerns of the country’s default”.
In another tweet, he wrote, “Pakistan is becoming a big jail & death zone for the poor as they are dying of hunger. The government did nothing but get the cases against the rulers quashed in the past 10-months. A conspiracy is being plotted to divide the judges as it happened in 1998”.
