said that the government will implement courts orders on Nawaz Sharif and the Jamiat Ulema Islam (F) march in letter and spirit.

ies to Nawaz Sharif.

Rashid
said that the government was ready to give face saving to Maulana Fazlur Rehman by facilitating him to hold protest, adding that action wo
uld be taken if someone
challenged writ of the state.
The minister said, “Prime Minister Im
ran Khan has refused to give any NRO to corrupt politicians.”
He
said the opposition’s outcry was not for democracy but the freedom of their corrupt leaders.
He
said that Tableeghi Ijtema wo
uld be held on October 30-31 and the JUI-F’s march would create problems for its participants.
He said Fazalur Rehman’s protest co
uld be problematic for security of the country in view of current situation on borders, including the Line of Control(LoC).
He hoped
that Prime Minister Im
ran Khan’s government wouldsuccessfully overcome the current political challenges and he would complete his constitutional tenure.
