2009-03-29 |
Pakistan's president has said that he will return control of the Punjab province to the country's main opposition party, ending its rule by the central government. Asif Ali Zardari told a joint session of parliament that he will allow the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), led by Nawaz Sharif, to return to power in the eastern province. "We shall recommend the lifting of the governor rule in Punjab," Zardari said on Saturday. "The Pakistan's People Party also will support the candidates of the PML-N, whoever he may be." |
