Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) senior leader Makhdoom Amin Fahim on Friday said his party had a clear majority in the presidential election and PPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari would be the new president of the country.
Talking to the journalists here at Parliament House, Fahim expressed optimism that Asif Zardari would bag maximum votes in the presidential polls. However, he said the president, being the representative of the federation, should play a role of a referee.
“I have no information of any MP changing loyalties. Neither I know when the deposed judges would be restored. However, in my view, the Article 58-2(b) of the Constitution should be repealed,” he said.
To a query, Fahim said he had no information whether or not the PML-N would rejoin the ruling coalition.
The PPP leader expressed concerns over the increasing law and order situation across the country.
“The firing at the motorcade of Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani is not an ordinary incident. The law and order situation is worsening and this should be handled with care. On the other side, the price hike is touching new heights and this should be controlled instantly,” he said.
He warned the government that the country was facing a critical juncture and the situation should be handled with care.
“The country is facing a tough time as feeble economic condition, deteriorating law and order situation and skyrocketing prices need immediate attention. If the country stays intact, we would be able to govern it. But if God forbid, the state itself collapses, what to talk of forming governments,” he warned.
