Opposition seems more interested in political point-scoring: Daniyal

ISLAMABAD, (APP): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Leader
Daniyal Aziz has said there was no bigger institution than the Supreme Court
(SC) for delivering justice, but the opposition seems more interested in
political point-scoring on PANAMA leaks.
While talking to a private news channel he said the opposition also has
realized that the name of the prime minister Nawaz Sharif has not been
mentioned in the Panama Papers. Therefore, the opposition is trying to harden the position.
“I think, it is part of the process and negotiations would continue
between the government and the opposition. A timeframe has been defined to
resolve the issue. I hope that the matter will be resolved in upcoming day”, he added.
Regarding the health issue of Prime Minister, he said opposition is
also exploiting the illness of the Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in their
favour.
Daniyal said rest was must for the PM before the surgery and “I hope
the PM would recover within a few days after the surgery”.
There was no need that the prime minister should remain in the country
regarding the issue of Panama Papers because a committee has already been
formed to resolve the matter.
To a question he said anyone who has any issue should go to the court
of masses. We have good ties to all countries including Afghanistan, Saudi
Arabia, Iran and China because of our successful foreign policy.
The prime minister was in contact with us because we are living in
digital age, he added.
“We should concentrate on budget instead of such issues”, he
concluded.
