Withdrawal of US forces: ‘Parliament should be taken into confidence on Afghan situation’

ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan People’s Party on Sunday said there is one Pakistan for the prime minister and his friends and another Pakistan for the rest of the people. Central Secretary Information PPP Faisal Karim Kundi said this while addressing a press conference here on Sunday.

Faisal demanded that parliament should be taken into confidence about the situation in Afghanistan after the withdrawal of US forces. “The PPP demanded that closed-door meetings should not be held on the situation after the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan and that parliament be taken into confidence on the issue,” he said.

“If wheat and sugarcane crops have been bumper this year, then why sugar and bread have not become cheaper,” he asked. He said the Election Commission should take notice of the pressure on the people to support the PTI in the Kashmir elections.
