Punjab Governor Ch Mohammad Sarwar on Sunday said that there was no threat of martial law in the country as future of Pakistan is intertwined with democracy.
Talking to the media after attending 3rd Day Urs celebrations of Hazrat Data Ganj Bakhsh, he said that some people criticized the government, saying that it did not believe in dialogue process but when the government decided to hold dialogues with the opposition, they criticized that it was afraid of opposition’s protest, adding that the government was in consultation with opposition in national interest.
The Governor said that all facilities would be provided to opposition’s parties if they would stage peaceful protest, adding that opposition parties were divided but they would participate in Jamiat Ulema Islam-F (JUIF’s) protest to achieve their political interests. Prime Minister Imran Khan would not give any resignation as he was elected for five years, he maintained.
He said that Indian has committed human rights’ violations and brutalities in occupied Kashmir besides violating ceasefire at Line of Control, adding Indian wanted to create unrest in Pakistan but why the opposition wanted to create instability and unrest by staging protest. No one wanted to create instability in the country at this time that was why the people have rejected opposition’s agenda.
