No new thing in NSC announcement, it reconfirms PTI stance: Shah Mehmood Qureshi

Vice President Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and former foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said that there is no new thing in the announcement of the National Security Committee (NSC) and it has reconfirmed the PTI stance.

He said this while talking with media persons in Islamabad on Friday.

He said that Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Maryam Nawaz had termed the letter fake but the NSC has attested that there was a letter and there was also foreign interference in the affairs of the country.

Qureshi maintained that the meeting of the NSC had raised serious questions over the legitimacy of the sitting government, adding the latest NSC press release has endorsed the previous release.

Qureshi said that the real question now is to assign the investigation to an authority. We want the Supreme Court to form a judicial commission to investigate the matter, he demanded.

He further said that the previous PTI government and National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaisar had sent the “letter” to the supreme court for probing into it.

He said that he wanted to ask Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif what he had achieved from holding the NSC meeting but it had hit the credibility of the government and created problems for it.
