Mian Raza Rabbani, Former Chairman Senate, has issued the following press statement;

The dragging of the feet by the IMF on signing the Agreement and reluctance of friendly countries, except China, to help sans the IMF, Parliament needs to be taken into confidence. It appears Pakistan is being softened up to play a role that is against its national and strategic interests. The people have a right to know if, our nuclear assets are under pressure, or is our strategic relationship with China is under threat or our we are being called up to play role in the region which will facilitate the military presence of an Imperialist power? These and other questions require a policy statement by the Prime Minister on the floor of a joint sitting.

The question of the TTP and increase in terrorism has also found no discussion or briefing from the Government.It seems be it the PTI or present governments want azadi from Parliament and theConstitution, 1973
