'N to give PPP tough time as Opp: Nisar

LONDON Central leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Leaer of the Opposition in the National Assembly Chaudhry Nisar has said that now his party will give PPP government a tough time as a genuine opposition. The time to come will tell the people that PML-N and PPPs manifestoes were different from each other, still different and will remain. He was talking to Nawa-i-Waqt/TheNation before his departure for Pakistan at Heathrow Airport here on Sunday. He said he would hold a press conference on Raymond Davis issue after going to Pakistan and explain his partys viewpoint and policy. He said he would brief the media and bring to light the facts and steps taken by the Punjab government and those taken by the Federation regarding Davis case. To a question, he said Imran talked to Altaf Hussain not on his own but he was asked to do so. He was working for agencies as did the MQM. Nisar said people could not be fooled any more. He said for quite a long time Imran used to bring Altaf back to Pakistan handcuffed but now he had started talking to him on phone. It appeared, he maintained, that Imran was also working for the agencies. He said he discussed with Mian Nawaz Sharif important political issues and the situation prevailing in Pakistan. To a question that whether PPP would jointly contest the upcoming general elections with PML-Q, he did not reply.
