APC Moot Sees Key Leaders Walk Out Over Controversial Demands

People’s Party’s Nayyar Bukhari and Muslim League-Nawaz’s Senator Irfan Siddiqui and Federal Minister Tariq Fazal Chaudhry declined to sign the declaration and walked out of the moot.

“These are your demands, not ours, and we cannot endorse them,” Senator Siddiqui said.

The APC statement demanded an end to the operation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. It also demanded an impartial inquiry into the losses of life and monetary losses, and the formation of a Truth Commission monitored by the judiciary.

The APC also demanded handing over all powers to civil administration in merged districts and the enforcement of the 18th Constitutional Amendment with its true spirit.

The moot demanded the right of the provinces over minerals and their other resources.

ANP chief Aimal Wali Khan, speaking in the conference, complained absence of the PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali in the moot.

Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Mehmood Khan Achakzai, and representatives of all major political parties attended the conference.
