Dar raises serious allegations against President Alvi accusing him of attempting to violate Constitution once again

ISLAMABAD, Feb 27 (SABAH): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) stalwart and Senator Ishaq Dar raised on Tuesday serious allegations against President Arif Alvi, accusing him of attempting to violate the constitution once again.

Speaking to the media in Islamabad, Dar expressed concerns over the potential obstruction of the upcoming National Assembly meeting scheduled for February 29 urged fellow members not to sign any documents supporting the alleged unconstitutional actions.

He highlighted instances where members were unable to take their oaths during previous sessions, emphasizing the importance of upholding constitutional procedures.

Dar stressed that failure by the President to sign the necessary documents for the assembly meeting indicated a deliberate attempt to disrupt proceedings, suggesting a disregard for constitutional principles. He condemned such actions, stating that they were tarnishing the nation’s reputation on the international stage.

The seasoned politician underscored the clarity of the constitution regarding the convening of assembly sessions, criticising the President’s objections and the subsequent return of the summary. Dar affirmed that members whose notifications had been issued would fulfill their obligations, despite the challenges faced.

Expressing frustration at what he termed as “games being played with the constitution,” Dar called for a proper resolution of the issue by the President. He assured that the National Assembly meeting would proceed as scheduled on February 29, dismissing any confusion surrounding the session.

Dar reiterated his commitment to fostering unity among members of both national and provincial assemblies, stressing the importance of inclusivity in the political process. He also refuted President Alvi’s assertion that the Constitution was incomplete, citing reports of a federal government response to the objections raised.
