Election boycott option exists: Fazlur Rahman
Khawaja Ahsan Paul 'Pakistan Times' Punjab Bureau Chief

LAHORE: Leader of the opposition in national assembly and Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA)’s stalwart Maulana Fuzlur Rahman said, “The option to boycott the elections lies with him, but we are preparing for the elections.”

Prior to the departure for India, in a press conference here, Maulana Fazlur Rahman said that the boycott of lections in 1985 was our mistake, which led to the occupation of non-political forces.

Therefore, the preparations for the elections were underway in full swing, he added.

He said London charter of democracy was not anything new. Pakistan was the homeland of Benazir and Nawaz Sharif; they could come back. He said, “We are ready for the revision on all constitutional amendments.”

Maulana Fazlur Rahman during his visit to India would be meeting key Indian leaders, which also included Indian Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh.●
