No threat to present set up: Aitzaz
ISLAMABAD: Aitzaz Ahsan, a veteran PPP leader and member of executive committee of the party, here Monday ruled out any change in present set up even after the departure of MQM- a coalition partner in the federal government.Responding to queries of media men in the Supreme Court building, he said "No MNA sitting in the assembly wants that assembly should be dissolved."
"The PPP government does not face any danger from the estranged coalition partners," he emphasized.
He maintained that bringing about a no confidence motion against the prime minister was not an easy task especially under the current situation.
He said suppose, a no confidence motion was brought about, then each group would link its joining the coalition government conditional with inclusion of its maximum members in the cabinet.
Replying to Muttahida Qaumi Movement's decision to part ways with the federal government, he said their seriousness would be judged on the issue of governorship.
"Let them take a decision over leaving the governorship of Sindh province like JUI-F ministers," he said.
Wasim Sajjad, Leader of Opposition in Senate and senior leader of PML-Q, to a query replied that though his party had not taken a decision over the issue, they were not opting for elections as under the current situation, the country could not afford holding of elections.
