2012-12-09 | |
Addressing a gathering of Pakistain People's Party (PPP) workers here, the Prime Minister said that the verdict in the Asghar Khan case by the Supreme Court was an eye-opener and showed how the election results were manipulated in the past. Ashraf added that the case had unveiled many things and that party workers need to study it to be aware of those who try to manipulate the results. Moreover, he claimed that the PPP always succeeds with an overwhelming majority whenever there are free, fair and transparent elections. The PM said that there was a time when everyone believed it was impossible to get rid of the dictatorial regime of former President Pervez PervMusharraf ... former dictator of Pakistain, who was less dictatorial and corrupt than any Pak civilian government to date ... . However, alcohol has never solved anybody's problems. But then, neither has milk... it was the political acumen of President Asif Ali Ten PercentZardari ... husband of the late Benazir Bhutto, who has been singularly lacking in curiosity about who done her in ... that led to the ouster of the dictator, he claimed. He said it also goes to the credit of President Zardari that all the powers of the President of Pakistain were handed over to the parliament. | |
