Senator Mushahid tenders resignation following ISI plot claims

[Pandora]

Nawaz is not an idiot he probably has some dirt on our good generals. Looks like he wants to keep his cards folded for now. It would be really stupid to poke military at such a crucial time.

Hmm.. So ISPR calls a senior cabinet minister's statement unprofessional , irresponsible , totally baseless,unfounded & farthest from truth. That too in public. Was there a need for this ? PM had already demanded explanation.

...

Like it hasn't happened in the past, pakistani....

Gandhi was killed by an extremist Hindu.

Two other PMs of India were killed by militants as well. Going by your logic Modi is the next one?

Or what point are you trying to make by commenting on Pakistan's internal affairs by ill-intended reference to the past without knowing the current dynamics?

I have a question for you. How on this EARTH can this situation cause ANY good or bad to an election???? There was an incident that the PM dealt with the Army Chief. One of the government's official spoke about it. The chain of command goes through the PM, he'll address this with the Minister and will make sure the Minister either apologizes, clarified or resigns. That's it. Its business as usual. There is nothing SO important or "strategic" about it. In fact, its not even an "event". Someone made wrong statement or a statement they shouldn't have made, their boss is going to address it. Matter closed! No impact to anyone's election, fever, dinner or lunch.

Simple. It defames Imran khan. I don't know why over here political moves are considered bad. In a political environment those that can't play politics can't survive. I would be thrilled if imran made a few political moves.

Do you honestly believe that will happen and people will forget?

Here is what did statement did. It defamed imran as it showed him an instigator of violence , a puppet of Arny that was used and a power hungry man who would have created chaos for his election. This interview reminded people of the dharna and made claim that he was used by zaheer while N makes itself look the mature govt saying they handled an instigator of violence and the army chief supported us in this. You see how they make themselves look good while making Imran look bad especially during this kasur incident which was defaming N.

These are my views that this is a political maneuver and this statement maneuver or not will have impact on the elections..

The people will see it as a truth that the govt is hushing up to create greater unity.

You can believe that your leader has zero control on his men and one of his men accidently said this in an interview and the interview came on news channel two days before a very important election but I don't. Parties and their members are too intertwined for such mistakes especially of issues that are this big.

Nawaz asks Mushahidullah to explain claims made in BBC interview

ISLAMABAD: Hours after an interview appeared wherein Federal Minister for Climate Change Mushahidullah Khan had claimed that some high ranking officers had tried to stage a coup at the height of last year’s protests in Islamabad, Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif refuted all such notions and directed the minister to submit an explanation for his comments.

According to a spokesperson for the government, Nawaz denied Mushahidullah’s claims of a tape, bearing recordings of high ranking officers detailing their plot, adding that no such tape ever existed.

According to the statement issued from PM House, the premier has instead sought an explanation from the federal cabinet member over his statement.

AsimBajwaISPR ‏@AsimBajwaISPR

The story about any tape recording as being discussed in media is totally baseless,unfounded & farthest from truth-1/2
....Such rumours are irresponsible, and unprofessional-2/2

“PM does not have any knowledge about any such tape, ” the spokesperson added.

Later, the army’s spokesperson too termed any reports about a “tape” as baseless rumours.

Mushahidullah had claimed in an interview to the BBC that former Inter Services Intelligence (ISI) chief had hatched a conspiracy to oust both, Chief of Army Staff General Raheel Sharif and the prime minister, at the height of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) 120-day long protest in Islamabad.

The minister had claimed that the recording, by a top civil intelligence agency, had helped foil that plan. This recording, Mushahidullah claimed, had been presented to the premier, who had subsequently passed it on to the army chief.

............

Is Nawaz joking with the nation again? seriously no one speaks a word without nawaz permission. he is their king... he is again planning to panga with Raheel Sharif.

 

[Jzaib]

They are trying to create confusion . They always tired to show establishment behind it but without any proof at all . They are scared of street power of imran khan .

You are outlining THREE issues here. Which one would you like to discuss? The PM's brother one, or the Information Minister one or the Proofs one? I have written EXTENSIVELY about this issue ALL the way to last year, the day after it took place. Its all on this site. Care to research?

The issue is real. But it was addressed between NS and the Army Chief and others were told to eff off (Shuja and Zaheer, and company). So why surface a buried issue? I am SURE a lot of people would've talked about it including PM's brother.....but life has moved on and it has become part of the "DARK" past that IK was trying to bring to life permanently. A DARKER version of Pakistan that is.

But today, as it stands, Pakistan just around hitting $ 20 billion in savings account. This is something to celebrate and be proud of. This political drama from last year is history, just like IK"s sit-in and dance party of 2014!!!




You'd THINK so right!!! Well, you may want to sit outside with IK on stadium seats and watch the game till 2018. By 2018, Pakistan will have over $ 45 Billion in her foreign reserves (NEVER happened ever in Pakistan's history). So I could ONLY imagine the work being done, will be considered a job well done if you take a look around the list of projects taking place in Pakistan AND savings account growing!!

In 2018, when the game finishes up (current government finishes up their term), then they'll ask for "viewers comments" and your IK can provide your views then. Till then.....

Yeah mate, I remember how you "extensively' rehashed whatever Najam Sethi said and was already on the media, and when I asked for something which Najam Sethi didn't say, you ran away and 'conveniently' forgot to reply. You are a lying fake, and I got no problem saying that. PERIOD.

I don't hold that against you, there's only so much you can learn from the media.

As for the res of your post, I don't know where you are bringing IK from....I guess you have wallpapers of IK in your home, and a recording of him lying somewhere, and maybe you even get him in your dreams!

I don't know why I still keep on replying to you...good day!

That's how it is in Pakistan.

The CEO chosen by the shareholders doesn't run the company, the security staff does.

 

[Pakistanisage]

If True, Raheel Sharif was wise to nip it in the bud. All the more reason for Nawaz Sharif to extend Raheel Sharif's term by 3 more years now that he knows from first hand experience that he can trust Raheel Sharif.

Pakistan isn't going to have $45b in reserves by 2018.

As a mater of fact, whatever reserves we have in 2017 will fall in 2018 before election as govt starts subsidizing, paying circular debt and so forth to woo voters.

I don't know why you even come to siasat section

There is a reason almost all, if not every, mods avoid this section.

Good. Precisely what a Civilian government should do. Always protect its military and its honor. This is called "political support". Even if a government official makes a wrong statement about the military's conduct, the Civilian Premier should shield the military and address it by jumping in or putting in people like interior minister in between. Even if the matter's true, it would get addressed (like it did in this case), between the PM and the Army Chief.

Another good example of a working and running system
.

let me make a correction for you, it is not the 'Civilian Government' that came to defend its Military's honor but only 'The Prime Minister'. from the ranks of Khawajas to Pervaiz Rashid and now a 'Climate Change' Federal Minister add those wings to his chest of defaming the military....
My counter argument to you is, Nawaz Shariff clearly realizes that if a formal 'poll' is held today from GB to Karachi, the only 'Shariff' going to make it to the finish line past Afternoon would be 'General Raheel Shariff' hence it is in his best interest to obediently behave and not mess into the wrong hole.......

The funny thing of this all statement is Federal Minister for 'Climate Change' is giving his perspective on the matters of 'National Security' ....goon is the media that is reporting this and is are the ones believing in this

I have no idea about who this Najam guy or girl is. I told you that I had posted the details of that conversation between NS and the Army Chief LAST year, the day after it happened. I have my circle of trust, and ways to verify stuff. I don't follow your media, or news or gossip on here. GO find my posts from a year ago and verify those.
There is stuff I've posted on here that's turned out to be 100% true, from issues within India to stuff about Pakistan. You on the other hand are IK's propagandists. No substance, all talk. And you do not need to respond to my posts if you have 0 positive contribution. Why waste time.
When you debate, you bring in a point of view. In YOUR case, you bring in silly, nonsense base arguments and propaganda, just like the remainder of IK followers. And I brought and will bring IK into everything where I can highlight his stupid politics as an example. The guy at this point, has become an example of "what not to do when you become a politician" and I can write a book on him and be a New York Best Seller!!!!
