Opposition has a right to oppose any move against national interest: Khurshid Shah
Islamabad: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leader Khurshid Shah on Friday said that opposition holds right to
defy any move going against country’s interest.
Speaking in the National Assembly, Khurshid Shah said that politics cannot be done with indecent language,
adding that PPP had introduced National Finance Commission (NFC) Award in its tenure. The dictator, who
was ruling the country when we made government in 2008, was not ready to accept parliamentary system, he
told.
Khurshid Shah said that the incumbent government of Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) stumbles when it comes
to raising 10 percent salaries of the poverty-stricken people. Promote agriculture sector if you want to give
relief to the masses and boost economy of the country, he suggested.
PPP leader said, “We are in the favor of constructing dams but making this step a political move is
unaccepted.” He went on to say that the politicians should have good reputation as people will stop believing
in democracy if they make fake statements. “We should carefully make promises in the elections,” Khurshid
Shah said.
