ISLAMABAD: After the PML-Q and JUI-F threatened to topple Balochistan government, CM Aslam Raisani reached Maulana Fazlur Rehman's home here today and discussed the regional political situation and after the meeting Raisani said there was no threat to his government.
While spaking on the occasion, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman said the proposal to change the provincial political scene came from the chief of the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q), Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain.
In reply to a question, the JUI-F chief said Syed Khursheed Shah could not talk of Maulana Sheerani's resignation. 'Majlis-e-Shura would discuss the matter of Balochistan in its meeting.' Senator Maulana Muhammad Khan Sheerani is the Chairman of the Council of Islamic Ideology (CII) and a strong leader of the party.
CM Raisani said he don't care if the government was toppled.
The JUI-F chief had welcomed a suggestion by Chaudhry Shujaat that both the political parties could unite to change the chief minister of the province. Chaudhry Shujaat proposed that both the PML-Q and JUI-F, with the help of independent MPAs, could form a democratic government in Balochistan.
In response, the Maulana had said the matter could be further discussed if such a move comes from Chaudhry Shujaat. Both said the in-house change largely depends on the PPP and they would decide about their future strategies keeping in view their limitations. Both the leaders expressed these views in the Geo News programme "Capital Talk", hosted by Hamid Mir.
