00:00 I have to thank Mr. Iqtad Ahsan for this important issue.
00:05 Thank you very much for your time.
00:08 Sir, what would you call this drama?
00:14 I saw your picture in the Charter of Democracy.
00:23 Article 224 is also very clear.
00:26 The Shirk No. 230 of the Election Act also explains the role of a K-Ticker government.
00:32 Sir, what are you going to do with the Charter?
00:34 You are seniors. Please guide us.
00:37 I don't understand.
00:40 Since the elections were held in Punjab and Khyber...
00:46 ...the elections were held after 90 days.
00:48 It was impossible to imagine that a government would say that it does not accept the Charter...
00:54 ...and does not accept the Supreme Court.
00:56 It is strange.
00:58 There is a bench of nine judges.
01:00 Two of them stand up.
01:03 Two against nine is seven.
01:06 Seven against two.
01:07 Two of them stand up and say that there is no value in this bench.
01:10 Okay, that is their opinion.
01:12 But there are seven judges sitting.
01:14 The government says that it does not accept this bench.
01:18 Because this bench is wrong.
01:20 Two judges have said that it is wrong.
01:22 But there are seven judges sitting.
01:24 What are you counting?
01:26 First nine, then seven, then four, then three.
01:30 This is the confusion.
01:32 And their bureaucracy, their state machinery is making them obey.
01:38 This Prime Minister, this Interior Minister, this Defence Minister, this Law Minister...
01:47 ...who are standing in front of the verdict like this.
01:51 They say that they do not accept it.
01:53 Now, we do not accept it.
01:55 It is unthinkable that the Charter says that a date is not later than 90 days.
02:01 A date is not later than 90 days.
02:04 And they say that we do not accept it.
02:07 This is not in accordance with our needs.
02:13 There are other requirements of needs.
02:16 The Charter's view is that we will bring the needs which the courts have buried.
02:20 And we will say in the Supreme Court that we do not accept it.
02:23 We will go outside the Supreme Court and give abuses to the Chief Justice.
02:28 And I have never thought of such a rebellion.
02:33 I can never imagine such a rebellion.
02:37 So, Mr. Iqbal, there is a fear that in the constitution, in the laws, in the election act...
02:43 ...there could be some confusion from the Mujaddah government.
02:47 Or as you said, what difference does it make when Barahna stands in front of the Constitution?
02:52 Yes, the Interior Minister, Defence Minister, Law Minister, Prime Minister...
03:00 ...are standing in front of the Supreme Court and the Constitution in the same condition.
03:09 What can anyone do?
03:11 This is beyond imagination.
03:17 They say that the 9/11 incident was not an intelligence failure, it was an imagination failure.
03:23 This is also an imagination failure.
03:25 We cannot imagine that this will happen in this country.
03:29 One is the "Sarzameen-e-Bai'in".
03:33 Here they have made it "Sarzameen-e-Qatli-e-Ain".
03:38 They don't care about the constitution.
03:42 They don't care at all about what is written in the constitution.
03:45 Now, in the 18th amendment, in the head of the Senators of the Pakistan People's Party, Raza Rabbani...
03:59 ...this whole scheme was made.
04:01 What was the scheme?
04:03 That this will be neutral, the caretaker.
04:05 In this, what kind of...
04:08 ...they will hold it with one hand and the baton, which you carry while running in the race...
04:17 ...they will hold it in the other hand.
04:19 There is no other use for this.
04:22 Only the chairs on which the Prime Minister, the Minister and the Prime Minister will sit...
04:29 ...they will keep it warm.
