LAHORE (The Thursday Times) — Punjab ki Wazir-e-Aala Maryam Nawaz ne wafaqi wazir Chaudhry Salik Hussain aur un ka interview on air karne wale channel ke mezban aur chairman ko legal notice bhej diya hai. Notice mein un ki hukumat par corruption ke ilzamat ko "ghair tasdeeq shuda, bebunyad aur hatak-e-izzat par mabni" qarar diya gaya hai.
Maryam Nawaz ki hidayat par bheja gaya yeh notice, jo The Thursday Times ne dekha hai, Overseas Pakistanis ke wazir Salik, ARY News ke mezban Naeem Ashraf Butt aur ARY ke chairman Muhammad Iqbal ke naam hai. Yeh us interview se mutaalliq hai jo 2 November ko on air hua aur baad mein channel ke YouTube page par bhi post kiya gaya.
Notice mein Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid ke Salik, jo wafaqi ittehad mein shamil ittehadi jamaat hai, ka yeh bayan Urdu mein naql kiya gaya hai: "Mere paas shawahid to nahin magar Punjab mein corruption par kahaniyan roz sunta hoon", aur: "Punjab mein corruption ki files nahin, almariyan bhar gayi hain."
Notice mein kaha gaya hai ke yeh bayanat "mehz awami policy se ikhtilaf ka izhar ya aam siyasi tanqeed nahin" hain, aur un ke is bayan ko ke un ke paas saboot nahin, "sab se tashweeshnak pehlu" qarar diya gaya hai. Notice mein mezban par ilzam lagaya gaya hai ke unhon ne pehle kisi waqiyati bunyad ko saabit kiye baghair "sangeen ilzamat ki ishaat ke liye platform" faraham kiya. The Thursday Times ne jo do safhat dekhe hain, un se yeh zahir nahin hota ke notice mein kya mutalba kiya gaya hai.
Mangal ko Attock mein aik taqreeb se khitab karte hue wazir-e-aala ne kaha ke woh "corruption ke jhoote ilzamat" nahin sunengi. Unhon ne kaha: "Agar aap ke paas saboot hain toh samne le aayein, warna main aap ko adalat mein ghaseet loongi", aur poocha ke woh aisi hukumat mein wazir kyun bane hue hain jise woh corrupt samajhte hain.
Unhon ne kaha ke un ke ghusse ki asal wajah dar asal Gujrat ke deputy commissioner ko tabdeel karne ka un ka haliya faisla tha, jo khandan ka aabai zila hai, jab ke woh apni pasand ka afsar chahte thay. "Main kisi ko awam ki marzi mein mudakhlat karne ki ijazat nahin doongi," unhon ne kaha. Unhon ne is baat par bhi aitraz kiya ke woh sabiq Wazir-e-Aala Chaudhry Pervez Elahi ki tareef karte hue unhein sooba ka behtareen wazir-e-aala qarar de rahe thay.
Salik ne sahafiyon se kaha ke woh apni baat par qayam hain. Saboot ke bare mein poochha gaya toh unhon ne kaha: "Barah-e-meharbani ja kar interview dobara sunein." Poochha gaya ke kya corruption hai, toh unhon ne kaha: "Ji haan, yaqeenan hai." Unhon ne mazeed kaha: "Allah hamein ghurur aur takabbur se mehfooz rakhe."
"Toh jhoote ilzamat lagana aajzi samjha jata hai, aur jawab dena takabbur qarar paata hai? Shabash!" wazir-e-aala ne jawab diya.
Hamein is notice par ARY ka koi elaniya jawab nahin mila. Is tanaze se hukmran PML-N aur wafaqi ittehad mein shamil aik ittehadi jamaat ke darmiyan khula ikhtilaf saamne aa gaya hai.
