ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has called on the federal government to dissolve the National Assembly and conduct new elections in light of increasing political tensions.
PPP Secretary General Nayyar Hussain Bukhari made this recommendation, stressing that a fresh mandate might be necessary if the government feels threatened. In an interview with a private television channel, Bukhari stated, “If the government perceives a threat, it should dissolve the assembly and call for new elections.”
Moreover, He suggested that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif should advise President Asif Ali Zardari to dissolve the assembly to facilitate the electoral process.
Bukhari expressed concerns about the government’s reluctance to discuss its issues with the PPP. He stated, “The PPP is prepared to support the government in Parliament, provided there are meaningful outcomes. President Zardari has consistently offered to mediate and contribute constructively, but there must be a genuine willingness to engage in dialogue.”
Additionally, He warned that any disruption of the political system could be detrimental to the country.
The PPP leader also remarked on the party’s acceptance of the election results despite reservations. “We accepted the election results with reservations. If we had not supported the PML-N, would the parliament and the Chief Executive’s office be operational today?” he questioned, highlighting the PPP’s contribution to stabilizing the government.
