Minister of Energy and leader of Muslim League (N) Khurram Dastgir says that it is written in the constitution that the power of Pakistan will not be in the hands of the supreme judges but in the hands of the elected representatives.

Speaking in Aaj News program “Faisla Aap Ka”, Khurram Dastgir said that it is premature to speak of contempt of court, this matter is between the Election Commission and the Supreme Court, the Election Commission has a heavy responsibility to conduct elections, the Constitution Article 224 mentions a clause of 90 days, but if they read the entire article, other issues are also mentioned in it.

He said that the Cabinet approved the position of the Ministry of Defence, Treasury, the Cabinet sent the matter to the Election Commission, we will present our position in the Supreme Court.

Regarding contempt of court against Shehbaz Sharif, Khurram Dastgir said that it would be wrong to accuse him of contempt of court. This matter goes from the Election Commission to the Cabinet and the Prime Minister. .

Courts showered flowers on Imran Khan for contempt of court, Khurram Dastgir

He said that in recent days the courts have dealt with Imran Khan with very soft hands, the courts showered flowers on him for contempt of court because the earlier examples were very harsh.

On the election, the energy minister said that we have no fear of Tehreek-e-Insaaf in the election, PTI is a self-made fascist crisis, efforts are being made to hold clean and transparent elections in October, the issue of census is also important in the election. It will not be right to have elections in two provinces based on the old census.

Khurram Dastgir said that PTI’s interest is that the entire constitution should be burnt and only 224 should be read. There is also a clause in the constitution to hold elections based on census. People of tribal districts are on strike for the last four days, the media reported. Do not give more reports on this issue.

Questioned by the host Asma Shirazi, the leader of the Question League said that there is no Parliament versus the Judiciary, the Parliament is taking steps towards the correct importance in the constitutional arrangement of Pakistan, the Judiciary has its own place, the administration has its own law, while in all of them Parliament has a relationship with the people.

The federal minister said that it is written in the constitution that after Allah, the power of Pakistan will not be in the hands of the supreme judges but in the hands of the elected representatives or in the hands of any institution, however, if contempt of court is to be imposed, then it should be imposed on Imran Khan because he is the same. The Supreme Court had said in 2021 that Punjab’s decision to break the transitional election was unconstitutional.

Both the Chief Ministers had decided to dissolve the Assemblies by themselves, Shoaib Shaheen

First we filed a petition, then the Supreme Court itself took notice.

Shoaib Shaheen said that the constitution and the order of the Supreme Court are clear that the elections will be held in 90 days, can anyone misinterpret the order of the Supreme Court.

Shoaib Shaheen said on the dissolution of the assemblies that this matter has become very old, you cannot ask anything from the prime minister or the chief minister, both the chief ministers had decided to dissolve the assemblies by themselves, the chief ministers can take political decisions.
