Nayyar Hussain Bukhari said that not only the PPP but also the government will have to play a role to get the constitutional amendments passed.
Earlier, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari stated that passing constitutional amendments without taking JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman into confidence is impossible.
In an exclusive conversation with ARY News, Chairman of the Pakistan People’s Party, Bilawal Bhutto, said that JUI-F is also preparing its own constitutional amendments draft.
“Our effort is to create consensus, and it is important to engage with Maulana Fazlur Rehman and if he agrees, it won’t take more than a month or two to proceed.”
Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that in order to bring Maulana Fazlur Rehman on board, we will have to incorporate his suggestions.
He mentioned that during the first meeting with Maulana Fazlur Rehman, he had many concerns, and 20 to 25 percent of my party’s concerns were also addressed by the government.
