ISLAMABAD: Parliamentary Leader of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) in the Senate Senator Sherry Rehman urged the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to prioritize the welfare of the people and their concerns, focusing on parliamentary mechanisms for protest and change instead of engaging in disruptive politics.
“The PTI must avoid conveying a message of disruption and instead work towards constructive solutions for the nation’s challenges,” she said while speaking to the media on Thursday. Senator Sherry Rehman said the PPP had previously extended an offer to the PTI to form a government, but the PTI is reluctant to take any responsibility. “The PTI should prioritize the welfare of the people and their concerns, focusing on parliamentary mechanisms,” she said, adding that collaboration within parliamentary structures and committees
is essential for effective governance and problem-solving.
The PPP’s Parliamentary leader in the Senate said President Asif Ali Zardari has stressed the importance of moving the country forward through dialogue and consensus with all stakeholders. “Today marks the first session of the parliamentary year in the Senate, a symbol of national unity, therefore, efforts must be focused on playing a positive role in the House and avoiding further
tensions in the country,” she said.
Referring to the alleged large-scale electoral fraud allegations raised by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, she said it was crucial to address difficult situations by prioritizing collective interests over personal agendas. “The parliament should remain a forum for constructive debate, not a battleground for personal gain,” she said.
She noted that while the PTI has raised allegations of widespread electoral fraud, they have only challenged the results of 22 constituencies. “However, PPP had filed over 50 complaints on election day but the PTI is only trying to build a political narrative to remain relevant,” she said.
