Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) MPA Mian Jaleel Ahmed Sharaqpuri said on Sunday that he will not support Nawaz Sharif’s stand against state institutions.
Addressing a press conference the Punjab Assembly member, who was suspended from the party a day before, said that “he abstains from lies”.
The suspended MPA said the PML-N supremo should not have indulged in such flimsy talk. He added that his talk was hurtful and “I will not support this stance”.
Referring to PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif, MPA Sharaqpuri said said that he is not inclined towards speaking against any state institution. “Nawaz’s anti-military speech in the APC was against national interests,” the MPA said, advising the ousted premier to not get emotional and avoid targeting national institutions.
The PML-N has suspended Mian Jaleel Ahmed’s party membership for criticising Nawaz’s speech, and has demanded a reply from him within a week.
