Minister of Interior Rana Sanaullah seeks parliament’s guidance on administrative crisis

ISLAMABAD: Rana Sanaullah Khan, the interior minister, stated on Wednesday that the Parliament has the duty to direct the country in a variety of matters and that it must now step up to prevent attempts to instigate an administrative crisis in the nation. The minister claimed that Imran Khan and his group are attempting to establish law and order while speaking in the National Assembly about a motion pertaining to several national issues, including law and order. Attempts are being made to instigate political and administrative crises, he claimed, and parliament should provide guidance to stop them in addition to providing guidance to deal with the economic crisis.

He said that Parliament is the supreme institution and other institutions have their own domains, responsibilities and authorities as per the constitution framed by Parliament.

He said that this institution (Parliament) can amend the Constitution and increase or decrease the authority of other institutions.

The Minister for Interior said that Parliament should discuss the overall situation and provide directions to all institutions on their basic roles.

Though there is no political or administrative crisis right now attempts are being made for it which should be curbed, he maintained.

The minister said that Imran Khan has been involved in creating chaos and unrest in the country for the last ten years. “Sit-in for 126 days, foul language in the speeches and disrespect for the parliament, long marches and protests from 2013-18 were aimed at creating anarchy in the country,” he added.

The minister alleged that elections were rigged and managed to bring Imran Khan into power in 2018.

He said that Imran Khan tried to sideline the opposition and rejected the offers of Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari for cooperation to steer the country out of challenges.
