![]() They said the committee which recommended action against them and presented the “fake” resignations to the speaker did this “only to please Akram Khan Durrani”, the NWFP chief minister”. They said that they had recorded their statements before the committee honestly and the committee had been satisfied with their statements but it was strange that such an extreme step was taken against them. Talking to Daily Times, Rukhsana Raz said that her resignation was bogus since she had not resigned. “I do not even know whether the resignation letter was in Urdu, Pushto, or Arabic,” she said. Raz denied that she voted for the opposition member, saying that she was expelled from the party because she was vocal in criticising the party. “My fault is that I have been vocal and criticised the government’s flawed policies. The NWFP chief minister has taken revenge,” she said. The MPA, who was elected to a seat reserved for women from Shabqadar Matta, criticised Akram Khan Durrani, the NWFP chief minister, for his policies. “He (Durrani) and his party call President Musharraf a dictator but he is himself a dictator running all the affairs of the government single-handedly. He has held the entire party (JUI-F) hostage,” said Raz. |
