ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani on Friday ruled out any unconstitutional change in the country saying, ‘only people will bring change in 2013 through elections’.
Responding to various point of orders of the Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) lawmakers regarding an alleged memorandum addressed to a US military official, Prime Minister Gilani said he had already issued a statement about it on the floor of the parliament in response to a point of order raised by Leader of the Opposition in the House.
“So raising this issue time and again is wastage of time. There are also several other issues in the country which should be discussed,” he said.
Prime Minister Gilani said that he had already summoned Pakistan’s Ambassador to the US to give an explanation in this regard. “Let us wait for the ambassador’s explanation,” he said.
He said that after the Abbottabad incident, the government summoned an in camera session on the opposition’s demand and concerned authorities gave a detailed briefing on that.
He said that the government always protected national institutions, including the ISI, in accordance with the country’s constitution.
Prime Minister Gilani further said that panic should not be created due to a newspaper report.
He said ‘blame game’ would not serve any purpose.
