Agencies are in Government control: PM Gilani

Prime Minister Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani has said that secret agencies are in control of government and PPP had not participated in Imran Khan’s Show in Lahore.

Addressing the 125th Year Celebrations of Aitchison College and talking to media later on Saturday the Prime Minister said that those who talk of agencies’ involvement in everything must understand that the agencies are with the incumbent government. He said the government however doesn’t need to show its political muscle.
He said it is no doubt that Imran Khan managed a successful rally in Lahore, but “the saying goes there are many a slips between a cup and lips”. He said the PPP is a formidable party and would win the next elections, adding that Imran’s one successful rally isn’t enough.
“Since, we are in the government, and the government doesn’t need to show power or muscles to prove its strength”, the Prime Minister said.
He rejected the allegations of PML-N, JUI and certain parties and made it clear that the agencies were not involved in making the PTI public meeting in Lahore successful.
He said that most of the political parties were coalition partners in the Federal Government, therefore, the parties or the public were not wary of democratic set-up. SANA
