LAHORE: Senior leader of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Senator Babar Awan on Friday declared the day as “day of mourning” as the apex court ruled memogate case maintainable, FTNews reported.
Speaking with the media representatives, he said that even 100 letters like the controversial “memo” could not damage democracy.
He said that the government had nothing to do with the memo. “This is a constitutional government,” he added.
Speaking on Hussain Haqqani’s resignation, he said that anyone would have done the same to make himself/herself clear. “Haqqani is not even a ‘lion’….still he did not run away from the country,” Awan added.
He blamed the Punjab government for making people tangled up with non-issues.
Awan said that the democratic system in the country was not given complete freedom and chance to rectify previous mistakes of the dictators.
