00:00 Has this been the case in the history of Pakistan?
00:05 It has happened in the past as well.
00:07 But let me come back to your election.
00:11 They say that the election commission has awakened.
00:14 They say that God fights for simplicity and does not have a sword in his hand.
00:19 They remembered the KPK today and said that the politicians are sitting.
00:22 So the spectacle that the non-politicians are doing in Punjab,
00:27 the way the four walls are being demolished,
00:30 the way people's homes are being bombed,
00:32 the way the PTI workers are being cracked down,
00:35 the attempt to crush them,
00:37 the houses are being demolished, businesses are being shut,
00:41 someone's petrol pump is shut, someone's relative is being kidnapped,
00:44 someone's brother, someone's father.
00:46 There is no limit to this.
00:48 Let me give you a small example.
00:50 Hammad Azhar says that because he did not get it,
00:52 we kidnapped his father.
00:54 He left politics 20 years ago.
00:57 He is a non-politician.
00:59 He is a non-politician.
01:01 He is doing politics that he has come across.
01:08 The parliament is also present.
01:10 Legislation is also being done.
01:12 We are seeing that the law is being passed on the basis of daily basis.
01:15 Senate and Nationals are also being passed.
01:17 Let's add Mr. Chaudhary.
01:19 Mr. Chaudhary, I apologize for taking a little more time.
01:21 Now, your respected Chief Minister Mohsin Naqvi is also in Lahore.
01:25 Azam Khan is in the KPK.
01:27 Now, the reason that is being made,
01:30 the people are saying,
01:32 I am telling you about the city government,
01:35 they are saying that,
01:36 "Oh God, Punjab is also going on,
01:38 Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is also going on,
01:40 so in the same way, after 12th, 13th August,
01:42 if the present parliament is finished,
01:44 it will be finished,
01:45 if we should not use the word,
01:48 then after National Assembly,
01:50 this will also continue,
01:52 Wafaaq will also continue,
01:53 so what is your problem?
01:54 An example has been made,
01:55 we will follow it,
01:56 a person will sit on his own,
01:57 whether he is a politician or a non-politician.
01:59 You will not have any objection?
02:01 Respected, what objection are you talking about?
02:04 This is Mohsin Naqvi's,
02:06 the supervisor of the Punjab government,
02:08 he has issued a circular,
02:10 that you have to hold seminars of people of Muslim League,
02:14 in colleges, schools and universities,
02:17 and he did it,
02:18 after that,
02:19 about 10,000 people in Punjab,
02:21 he arrested them,
02:23 the reason is that,
02:26 he has put his people in the police,
02:29 civil servants and police force,
02:35 and through them,
02:36 he has given a tradition of such political oppression,
02:42 that Allah's protection,
02:43 he is not doing this with Pakistan,
02:47 and now he is putting his people,
02:50 that we have crushed your opponents,
02:52 we should be made the Grand Minister there,
02:55 and one more thing,
02:57 if you are not surprised,
02:59 that no Mohsin's name should come,
03:01 and second,
03:03 here,
03:04 you should not even be grateful,
03:06 you should not even be grateful,
03:08 but what can you do?
03:10 and second,
03:11 you should note,
03:13 and Shaheen,
03:14 may Allah give you courage,
03:16 you are very brave,
03:17 courageous,
03:18 and according to the law,
03:21 in the courts,
03:22 for the rights of the people,
03:23 for political freedom,
03:25 for democratic environment,
03:28 and for the freedom of the media,
03:30 you are fighting,
03:31 and thousands of lawyers like you,
03:33 the lawyers have made us proud,
03:36 but even today,
03:37 the journalists are missing,
03:39 and there are attacks on some,
03:41 we have been threatened,
03:43 this is a letter,
03:45 a lady from Noor League,
03:48 in which she has put our pictures,
03:50 that someone has been martyred,
03:52 now it is their turn,
03:54 but no one is asking,
03:56 I am just asking,
03:58 that if in Pakistan,
04:00 elections are to be held according to the law,
04:03 then these,
04:04 the best,
04:05 the most powerful governments,
04:07 have been threatened,
04:08 and the same is being prepared in the Central Government,
04:10 then which election,
04:12 and which law,
04:13 which law will go?
04:15 So the question that,
04:16 what Shoaib is saying,
04:17 that now the election,
04:18 Article 224 is very clear,
04:20 that a new Prime Minister has to be elected,
04:23 within 60 days or 90 days,
04:25 elections have to be held,
04:26 on one hand the government says,
04:28 that all the powers to hold elections,
04:30 which is very clear in the constitution,
04:32 they have also made new provisions,
04:34 the election commission has it,
04:36 they will give the date,
04:38 on the other hand,
04:39 sometimes they are talking about 60 days,
04:41 sometimes 90 days,
04:42 sometimes they are saying 6-8 weeks,
04:44 and increasing it,
04:45 it doesn't matter,
04:46 so what will happen now,
04:47 in your opinion,
04:48 what do you think,
04:49 being a senior lawyer,
04:50 constitutional expert?
04:51 Look,
04:52 two unconstitutional governments,
04:53 are already sitting in front of you,
04:55 in Punjab and KP,
04:56 after 90 days,
04:57 they are unconstitutional,
04:58 their work is illegal,
04:59 and unconstitutional,
05:00 the courts are silent on that,
05:02 so what they have done today,
05:04 by increasing petrol by Rs 20,
05:06 they have made us a beneficiary of Rs 5,
05:08 they have increased it by Rs 19.95,
05:10 this is not their intention,
05:12 to hold elections,
05:13 I am convinced of this now,
05:15 otherwise,
05:16 you would have had expiry of the term,
05:18 and you would have held elections in 60 days,
05:20 now dissolving it 3 days before,
05:21 is also dishonest,
05:22 so that you get 90 days,
05:24 and they don't want elections in 90 days,
05:26 tell me,
05:27 when they don't hold elections in 90 days,
05:29 their own words,
05:31 that the constitution says,
05:33 hold elections in 90 days,
05:34 or 60 days, whatever it is,
05:35 but if they don't hold elections after that,
05:37 then there is no difference,
05:38 they can hold elections whenever they want,
05:39 your Raja Riaz,
05:40 the opposition leader says,
05:41 even if they don't hold elections for 10 years,
05:42 there is no discrimination,
05:43 so you,
05:44 the spirit of the constitution says,
05:46 that any issue of the country,
05:48 you have to resolve through the elected representatives,
05:51 if you don't do it through the elected representatives,
05:53 then the whole unconstitutional system,
05:54 will be a series of acts.
05:55 Ok,
05:56 the next question is,
05:57 the government says,
05:58 that whatever objection comes,
06:00 we go to the courts,
06:01 you have petitions,
06:02 the PTA has petitions,
06:04 in the Supreme Court,
06:05 we go there and give answers,
06:07 we give arguments,
06:08 that these are our arguments,
06:10 because of which we delayed in KP,
06:12 because of which we delayed in Punjab,
06:14 if needed,
06:15 we will delay here also,
06:16 so this bill,
06:17 this poor bill,
06:18 who will implement it,
06:20 Chaudhary Ghulam or Khawar Guman,
06:22 we don't have that much authority,
06:24 the courts and the institutions will do it,
06:26 the courts,
06:27 in front of you,
06:28 gave a decision on 1st March,
06:29 that within 90 days,
06:30 we will have elections,
06:31 the date of 30th April,
06:32 that decision is still in the field,
06:34 but it has flown in the air,
06:36 it is pending like papers,
06:37 now I have said this to the Supreme Court,
06:39 in one forum,
06:40 people are looking at you,
06:42 if you don't stand with them today,
06:44 because you have sworn to protect the rights of people,
06:47 I have said these words,
06:48 you have to protect,
06:50 you are the only institution,
06:52 otherwise this chaos,
06:54 this chaos,
06:55 this spread and frustration,
06:57 will get another direction,
06:59 and if we have,
07:00 for the rule of law,
07:01 for the violation of the law,
07:03 and for the violation of the law,
07:05 if the courts and the lawyers don't work,
07:07 then no segment of the society will be able to stand,
07:10 I say that,
07:11 the Supreme Court has decided,
07:13 whoever has not acted today,
07:15 there should be action against them,
07:17 if the Supreme Court steps back,
07:19 and doesn't take action,
07:20 then tomorrow,
07:21 questions will arise,
07:22 the historian will definitely write in history,
07:24 that okay,
07:25 Umar Ta Bandyal has this credit,
07:27 despite all the pressures,
07:29 he has decided according to the law,
07:31 but his action is also your responsibility,
07:34 and if he couldn't have acted,
07:36 then tell me,
07:37 how will he act on a common man?
07:39 He wants to ask a question.
