ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) chief Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain on Tuesday said that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif should avoid the politics of long march and destabilisation against the democratic process.

He advised the PML-N chief to end confusion and come out with a clear stance.

Speaking to a private news channel, Shujaat said that only masses can resolve the current crisis through the power of voting however general elections would be held in March, 2013.

He said that the fifth budget would also be presented by the current coalition government.

The PML-Q chief said that his party had shared its concerns with the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) leadership on creation of Hazara province, adding, his party would soon table a resolution for creation of the province.

Hussain refused to accept the prime minister as a convicted person and said PM Gilani cannot be declared a convicted person till a decision is made on his appeal.

Replying to a question, Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain said that it makes no difference whether Nawaz Sharif accepts the prime minister or not.

He said Sharif brothers have committed contempt of court because they themselves are involved in defaming the judiciary by storming the Supreme Court.
