MUZAFFARABAD: Opposition leader in the Azad Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly Raja Farooq Haider Khan on Sunday asked Prime Minister Chaudhry Abdul Majeed to dissolve the assembly or face a no-confidence motion.

Addressing a press conference here at the Central Press Club, Haider, accompanied by Secretary General PML-N Azad Kashmir Shah Ghulam Qadir, said, “The PM has completely failed to deliver on his promises for more than two years and in June his government will complete its third year while nothing has been done for the people of Azad Jammu and Kashmir.”

Alleging that the PM and his cabinet is a ‘slave’ to the PPP’s Faryal Talpur, Haider said Chaudhry Abdul Majeed is ‘hoodwinking the people’ by claiming that the Legislative Assembly-22 Sudhonati-Poonch VI by-election was rigged. Haider questioned how 187 Rangers personnel could have rigged the election in the presence of 3,000 policemen.

Haider also claimed that former PM Sardar Attique Ahmad Khan had received a substantial sum from PM Majeed to run his party candidate’s election campaign to damage the PMLN’s candidate Sardar Farooq Tahir in the by-election.

He added that the people of Azad Jammu and Kashmir have rejected the policies of the PPP government and their party’s candidates have been defeated in two by-elections in Muzaffarabad and Sudhanoti-Poonch.
