Fawad Chaudhry says current rulers to face accountability soon

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Vice President Fawad Chaudhry has said that the rulership is not a permanent thing and the current rulers will face accountability soon, ARY News reported on Monday.

While addressing the lawyers convention in Islamabad today, Fawad Chaudhry said that the legal fraternity exhibited solidarity with the judiciary and the Constitution. “The voices of lawyers show that the protectors of the Constitution are present here.”

“After today’s hearing [of the election delay case], I realised that the major hurdle in the organisation of polls is the deficiency of votes. The Constitution is incomplete without the votes of the nationals.”

Chaudhry said that they were thinking to enter general elections phase after the dissolution of two provincial assemblies but incompetent people became the ministers now.

“Those who had chanted slogans of Vote Ko Izzat Do are missing and the ruling PML-N leaders cannot even take meals among the nationals.”

“Our fundamental rights were seized and lawyers have been stopped from going inside the court. This government has only one policy to abduct people and subjected them to cruelty. People in black coats had never been taken into custody in the darkness of the night earlier.”

He urged the immediate organisation of elections in the country as per the Constitution.

Earlier, Fawad Chaudhry said that the rulers have started a rebellion against the Constitution to pressurise the courts.

While talking to the media, Fawad Chaudhry said that Article 218(3) of the Constitution bounds the election commission to organise elections. He said that the time has arrived to launch a nationwide movement for the revival of the Constitution after the ‘fascist attacks’.

He said that PTI and the nation are standing beside the judiciary. He added that Imran Khan would announce a nationwide movement to support the judiciary and the Constitution.
