Qazi resigns from NA
|
Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) president Qazi Hussain Ahmed resigned on Monday from National Assembly. Qazis private secretary Attaur Rehman submitted the resignation to the NA speaker.
In his resignation, Qazi said one-man rule was bypassing parliament on important matters. Military operations in Balochistan, Waziristan, Bajaur tribal agencies and the Lal Masjid operation had widened the gulf between the people and the army, he said.
MMA secretary general Maulana Fazlur Rehman said Qazi had breached the MMAs discipline. The resignation is a shocking disappointment for me. The MMA wanted explanations from Qazi, Fazl told reporters after an All Pakistan Democratic Movement (APDM) Joint Action Committee meeting at PML-N chairman Raja Zafarul Haqs house.
Fazl ducked a question about MMA Deputy Parliamentary Leader Hafiz Hussain Ahmads demand for holding an election for a new MMA chief. Hafiz Hussain Ahmad praised Qazis decision and urged other MMA members to follow him.
Online adds: MMA sources said the resignation was Qazis personal decision and that it was unlikely that other MMA members would resign.
