ISLAMABAD: Ameer, Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) Senator Sirajul Haq while appreciating the decision of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) decision to end the boycott of the Parliament has said that the opposition parties must unite for the accountability of the rulers.

Addressing the advisory body of the JI here on Wednesday, Sirajul Haq said that Prime Minister Nawaz’ Sharif’s attitude dissociating his statement in the court from his address to the nation and his speech in the National Assembly was a scar on the country’s parliamentary history and had breached the privilege of the parliament.

The JI chief further said that Pakistan at present was experiencing family rule instead of true democracy and the political parties would have to change their attitude to correct the trend.

Sirajul Haq made it clear that the main issue at present was not the formation of an enquiry commission for Panama leaks enquiry, it was prompt and across the board accountability and said that the opposition should unite and chalk out a line of action in this regard.

He warned that failure in the accountability of the off- shore companies could prove another fall of Dhaka.
