ISLAMABAD: All endeavors of PM, Yousaf Raza Gilani to woo back the
president PML-Q, Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa, Ameer Muqam back to his previous
portfolio, failed as PM’s latest meeting with PML-Q bigwig remained
inconclusive.
During his meeting with PM, Yousaf Raza Gilani on
Friday, the PML-Q leader was stressed by PM to realize the fact that he
(Ameer Muqam) had taken oath as a federal minister and as such should
come back to cabinet folds.
Replying to the offer, Ameer Muqam
said that portfolios were of no consequence to him, and while conceding
the fact that PML-Q was a part of coalition in government, he insisted
on maintaining his resignation, which he claims to have tendered on
principles.
PM, Yousaf Raza Gilani also strongly condemned the
suicide attack carried over Ameer Muqam’s rally, and while commending
Ameer Muqam’s resolve to face such odds, also assured the PML-Q leader
for provision of further security, from terrorists, who were an unholy
scourge against the Nation.
Acknowledging Ameer Muqam’s status
among Pakhtoon element of Pakistan, the PM invited Ameer Muqam to play
his due part in resolving Karachi crisis and peace. Ameer Muqam has
stressed on PM to accept his resignation from cabinet. Online
