PMLN and PPP Judge Restoration Talks Failed

Just got news that the talks have failed and PMLN can quit the Govt. step by step..

Here are the details of this news:

LONDON: The chances of separation between the two large ruling coalition partners are getting bigger, as the deadline for the judges restoration is nearing an end; however, the differences between Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) could not be done away with.

It is being expected that N-League would announce its separation tomorrow; however, PPP said it would not quit Punjab government.

PPP leader Hussain Haqqani said both the parties are at variance on modalities of judges restoration, adding the efforts are underway to remove the differences for which both the political parties will work in unison.

Even, US Assistant Secretary of State Richard Boucher could not work out any settlement between the two political parties on the issue.

The US Assistant Secretary of State held separate meetings with Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari in London; however, the differences between the two parties still exist, which has jeopardized the existence of ruling coalition.

There are chances that PML-N will part ways with the government, as PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif, answering a question, said the party’s parliamentary committee will be held tomorrow, where decision would be made regarding future course of action.

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-N Chief, Nawaz Sharif Monday formally announced to quit the Federal Cabinet and that ministers of his party will tender resignations to the Prime Minister tomorrow.

Addressing a press conference here after the meeting of the PML-N’s Central Working Committee, he said: “PPP failed to keep its promise and that is why we have decided to part ways with the coalition government.”

PML-N will not sit on the opposition benches for the time being and extend support to the government on the basis of issues, he announced.

You know very well by now that no breakthrough could be achieved on the issue of restoration of deposed judges after holding marathon negotiations with the Pakistan People’s Party, Nawaz Sharif said.

PPP and PML-N committed in the Murree Declaration to reinstate the deposed judges to November 2, 2007 position by passing a resolution in the Parliament within 30 days of coming into power.

“We left no stone unturned to keep our promise made in the Murree Declaration,” he said, adding, “I had to go to Dubai and then London to hold negotiations with the PPP on the issue but to no avail.”

Our ministers will tender resignations tomorrow, Nawaz Sharif said.

He said: “Our standpoint is that the steps taken on November 3 were unconstitutional and illegal. 60 judges were sacked in a single move by General Pervez Musharraf, replacing them with his own under Provisional Constitutional Order.” We don’t accept these PCO judges, he added.

PML-N Chief was of the view that without independent judiciary the problems of the country cannot be resolved.

He vowed to continue the struggle for restoration of judiciary along with the lawyers community, civil society and people.

“We wanted the coalition government to remain intact but were left with no other choice than to walk out because of the deposed judges not being restored,” Nawaz Sharif argued.

He said: “Although no longer part of the government, we will never be part of any conspiracy against it.”

He said PML-N neither accepts pressure from US nor from any other outside country. Our decisions always reflect the aspirations of the people of Pakistan, he added.

President PML-N, Shahbaz Sharif, Javed Hashmi and Raja Zafrul Haq were also present on the occasion.
