Ouster of Musharraf will solve many problems:Sharif



LAHOREThe deposed judges of superior courts will stand restored as a result of a resolution to be passed by the National Assembly and an executive order to be issued by the government, former prime minister Nawaz Sharif says.
He told reporters here that most of the country’s problems would be solved when the judiciary got independent and President Pervez Musharraf quit.
He said if the democratic system had to sustain, the president would have to step down.
Answering a question, he said the ouster of the president was getting closer by the day.
In case he did not resign, the PML-N leader said, the coalition would have to go for his impeachment. “There will be no other way out.” He told a questioner that now all decisions would be taken by parliament.
In a related development, senior minister of the Punjab cabinet, Raja Riaz said the PPP was working with President Musharraf and had also no objection to working with Governor Khalid Maqbool.
He told reporters that the PPP had no problem working with the president and the governor within the limits set by the constitution.
Meanwhile, a JUI-F leader Hafiz Hussain Ahmed says ousting the president is not an easy task as he is wearing a ‘suicide bomber’s jacket’.
He said either the president or the perpetrators of those planning to dislodge him would have to go.
He regretted that Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani had invited an unconstitutional president to address parliament. He proposed that the 17th amendment should be annulled by a new amendment to the basic law.
