Zardari has no rapport with party workers, says Aitzaz

[Naveed Yaseen]

LAHORE: Former president of the Supreme Court Bar Association Chaudhry Aitzaz Ahsan has said that President Zardari does not enjoy a close rapport with the party workers like late ZA Bhutto or even like late Benazir Bhutto.

Talking to a private TV channel, he said late ZA Bhutto and chairperson Benazir Bhutto always maintained a close rapport with party workers, due to which the party workers had a special reverence for both — something the present co-chairman Zardari lacks.

He said masses would soon realise the benefits of the new judicial reforms, and there would be no more unnecessary delay in adjudication of cases.

While alluding to the recent crisis of Lahore High Court Bar, he said after the president’s tenure, there should have been elections in the general house, but currently Nasira Javed Iqbal was beleaguered by controversies. He said that the future of the PCO judges should rest with the Supreme Judicial Council.
