Mashood wants marchers to respect LHC ruling

LAHORE: Punjab Law Minister, Rana Mashood Thursday said those who had been speaking in favour of law and justice should honour decision of the Lahore High Court (LHC).

In a statement issue here, Rana Mashood asked whether crippling the country in the name of long march and sit-ins amounts to serving the nation?

The provincial Law Minister said resolution of the issues was possible only through holding a dialogue in the light of law and the Constitution.

His statement comes against the backdrop of the ongoing ‘Azadi March’ and ‘Revolution March’ being staged by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Pakistan Awami Tehreek despite the LHC’s verdict declaring their demands unconstitutional.
