LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Secretary Information Omer Cheema urged the opposition not to create hurdles in implementation of the National Action Plan (NAP), ARY News reported on Wednesday.
Omer Cheema, in his latest statement, said that military courts were established under the National Action Plan.
Slamming the opposition parties, Cheema said that Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) had deliberately avoided judicial reformations during its tenures. He added that both of the political parties sewed conspiracies against the reforms by Memogate and Dawn Leaks in order to hide its corruption.
He advised opposition to bring sensible suggestion or plan to resolve national issues instead of doing politics only.
The PTI leader complained that the opposition adopted an unserious attitude over important national issues as it always boycotted briefings summoned by the government.

Earlier in the day, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that the government could not introduce a bill in the parliament for an extension of the term of military courts without political consensus.
Talking to media ahead of a seminar on Pakistan-India relations here, the foreign minister said that without the agreement with the opposition introducing the legislation bill will be meaningless.
“The unanimity of opinion can be achieved when we will sit together,” Qureshi further said.
He said the opposition parties were also invited for a meeting over the National Action Plan (NAP).
The military courts were set up under the National Action Plan (NAP) in 2015, finally ceased to function on March 31 this year, as their constitutionally extended two-year term expired.
