LAHORE: Opposition Leader in National Assembly and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday said that the opposition was not asking for any relief from the incumbent government.
Speaking after meeting with the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari at his Model Town residence in Lahore, Shehbaz Sharif said that they have submitted their suggestions to the government for amendments in NAB law.
We have suffered from a nexus of government and NAB during the past two years, he said adding that it has been exposed as to how NAB was used to silence the opposition parties.
The opposition leader said that the amendments were suggested in the accountability law in light of the apex court’s recent remarks against the accountability watchdog.
“Besides court, top legal experts have also called for a complete revisit of the NAB laws,” he said.Shehbaz Sharif further lamented NAB’s silence over wrongdoings in federal and KP governments’ projects.
