The Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) has rejected a government request to support President Pervez Musharrafs re-election in uniform from the current assemblies.
Islamabad, Aug 7 : The Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) has rejected a government request to support President Pervez Musharraf's re-election in uniform from the current assemblies.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Leader of Opposition and MMA secretary general said that Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, chief of the PML-Q, had asked him on behalf of the government to support the re-election of Musharraf.
"I refused him the MMA's support on the uniform issue, and told him in unequivocal terms that we would not allow Musharraf's re-election in uniform from the current assemblies," he said.
The All Parties Democratic Movement would soon take a final decision on the presidential election, Rehman said.
Commenting on possibility of emergency and marital law, he said Musharraf wanted to "extend his illegitimate rule through such unconstitutional tactics".
Musharraf is now isolated and no democratic and political forces would back him, the Daily Times quoted, him as saying.
