operation in Abbottabad against Osama Bin Laden and demanded to open the session
for media and entire nation.

under the PM but on the other side he was saying that it was failure of the
intelligence agencies.

and should summon the Air chief into the house for halting of drone attacks. We
should sale these toys if we cannot protect our nuclear assets, Ch. Nisar added.

Abbottabad’s operation, he suggested.

single word to remove the reservations and insecurity of the masses and noted

and the prime minister should himself decide about this failure, the opposition
leader underlined. He questioned that the government tell why the government pay
so much attention to US demands and advices but not towards masses.

president was busy in dealing, he added. Our national sovereignty was
assassinated in this operation, the leader of the opposition said. Ch. Nisar

tenure but for the protection of the country.
