00:00 People's Party, Sharjeel Inam Mewan is with us. Sharjeel, tell us how surprising is this news for you?
00:07 I think if the Minister of Treasury himself is getting to know from TV, then you must have also got to know from TV that his name is being named as the Minister of Treasury.
00:16 Yes, BismillahirRahmanirRahim, thank you.
00:18 It is just that the leadership of the People's Party had no knowledge about this.
00:23 And for this process, the leadership of the People's Party has nominated three names who are members of a committee.
00:30 So, any name that is proposed, the consultation of the People's Party is required in that.
00:35 So, those three names will definitely sit in the committee of those names.
00:40 When they were informed, they were never floated this name.
00:44 So, suddenly this thing was floated in the media.
00:47 And to tell this thing in the media, I mean, it was a fake news, I don't know.
00:53 But, there is no truth to it.
00:54 This is the way it is. Basically, the name of Sharjeel sir is floated.
00:57 You must remember, a few days ago, Mohsin Beg's name was also floated in the same way.
01:01 So, has your Jamaat made any reservation about this?
01:05 The People's Party is not clear.
01:07 You see, the officials are not naive.
01:09 They have not denied any information.
01:11 But, in the interview, he is saying that he has not denied.
01:14 If he had denied, then this version of the law would have come in front of us.
01:18 He has not denied, I am not confirming it.
01:20 I am saying it clearly that the name of the People's Party has not been shared.
01:25 If it is done, what will Sharjeel sir say?
01:28 If it is done, then definitely, I have said that a committee has been formed.
01:32 The committee will discuss on it, the leadership will tell.
01:35 And then the decisions will be taken on the leadership.
01:37 That what to do.
01:38 So, the decisions will be taken on the highest level, but there was also a news that...
01:41 I cannot give any hypothetical answer on that.
01:43 But, was there any discussion on that, in Zardari sir's meeting with Nawaz Sharif sir in Dubai?
01:48 The question that the entire media has not been able to find out for 20 days,
01:53 they are finding it out in a naive way.
01:55 By the way, what is your opinion, should Sharjeel sir become the Minister of Finance?
01:59 No, no, my opinion is not in his favour.
02:02 I have made a very clear statement that this is a process.
02:05 In fact, your name can also be given as the Minister of Finance.
02:08 So, you will have an opinion on that too.
02:10 So, what is your opinion on this as a politician?
02:12 I have made a very clear statement.
02:15 We want that the elections should be impartial, free and fair.
02:20 And there should not be any pressure in the elections.
02:23 There should not be any title in the elections.
02:26 There should not be any party.
02:28 So, the People's Party has a different opinion.
02:31 There is one more thing, that the amendment in the election act,
02:35 they say that the Shikha is 230,
02:37 it will be made available so that the Minister of Finance can make very important decisions.
02:41 So, do you think this will be appropriate?
02:44 No, no, the work of the Minister of Finance is only that,
02:47 the election commission has to help him in that,
02:51 and not to clear any hurdle.
02:53 The Cabinet cannot take policy decisions.
02:56 So, Mr. Sharjeel, the most important factor of the government is to hold elections.
03:03 The election commission has to facilitate that.
03:06 When the name is given, it is considered that the government is impartial and transparent.
03:16 Now, there will be a lot of credentials of Mr. Ishaq Dar,
03:19 and we will not talk about his name,
03:21 but he is also the relative of Mr. Nawaz Sharif.
03:23 So, it should not happen that,
03:26 leave aside the other parties,
03:28 you are the one who is standing and expressing your concerns.
03:31 So, will everyone be on board to make all the decisions,
03:35 or will the decisions be as they are being made?
03:38 The decisions will be made according to the law,
03:41 and according to the law,
03:43 the stakeholders should be taken in a loophole,
03:46 and I think they will be taken.
03:48 Surprisingly, there will be no decisions.
03:50 Along with this, you are saying that the overall decisions will be taken in the right way.
03:55 You are not making any comments about the assembly's deliberation.
03:58 It is obvious that it is going to be done on time.
04:00 Inshallah ji, the plan is the same as before.
04:03 The early date has not come to me yet.
04:05 The Prime Minister said on 8th August,
04:08 that if the deliberation is done early, we will get 90 days.
04:11 Mohammad Zubair saab says that we want to get 90 days,
04:14 so that the Chief Justice leaves and we get the time for the full campaign.
04:18 So, there is some concern on this.
04:20 That is Mohammad Zubair saab's opinion.
04:22 So, won't the new Chief Justice come?
04:24 The new Chief Justice will come,
04:26 but he has a right to be concerned about the current Chief Justice.
04:29 He has a lot of questions.
04:31 But in this regard, PMLM has a different point of view.
04:35 We have a different point of view.
04:37 We are also a new party,
04:39 but our point of view is very different.
04:42 I am not saying that the difference is...
04:44 Sir, we have received news from the media.
04:46 The legal media channels are also reporting.
04:48 The decision makers are also accepting the name of Ishaq Dar.
04:54 So, what would you like to say on this?
04:57 I have said that the name has not been shared with our party.
05:00 They don't want to share it with me.
05:02 They want to share it with the committee that has been formed by the party leadership.
05:06 The committee will discuss the name with the leadership.
05:09 Then the people will go to the parties and discuss it.
05:12 I have not discussed anything.
05:14 I have not come to any fake news of the media.
05:17 So, you will not ask the party, you will not ask the party.
05:19 Are you saying this is fake news?
05:21 Definitely, because the name has not come to us.
05:24 I will tell you what the news was.
05:27 I will clarify.
05:28 The news that came yesterday that this name has come,
05:30 and the People's Party is also agreeing on this name.
05:33 So, I am saying this is fake news.
05:34 The People's Party has not been officially shared yet.
05:36 So, we have not agreed or disagreed with it.
05:38 Ishaq Dar is saying that I have fulfilled my responsibilities in this way.
05:41 So, he is indicating that if I am given any responsibility, I can do it.
05:45 It can be a request, obviously.
05:47 Look, again, I am not saying which person is good and which person is bad.
05:51 All people are good.
05:52 But the thing is that it is a process.
05:54 We have not discussed a name in that process.
05:56 Our name is floating.
05:57 One more thing, tell me,
05:59 there are a lot of talks about the Mardham Shumari.
06:02 What are you seeing in the future regarding that?
06:05 Can something happen or will the matter continue in this way?
06:08 Look, I will clear it to you that there is a constitution in the law for Mardham Shumari.
06:13 Whatever the constitution of Pakistan says, we will follow it.
06:17 We think that we should follow the process of the constitution.
06:21 We should not ignore the opinion of the people or the political party.
06:26 By the way, you are asking Noon League,
06:28 what is this matter, why is the name floating like this?
06:31 Ask them, we are big allies.
06:32 You have supported them in a very difficult time.
06:34 We have always supported everyone,
06:37 but I am not sure if Noon League has come up with a name or has put it up.
06:41 Or has a journalist done a favor?
06:45 Not a journalist, a favor.
06:46 Sir, when we are asking this name,
06:48 no one is questioning it.
06:49 We are trying to get an opinion as a journalist.
06:51 But you are not even getting any confirmation.
06:53 Yes, this is the thing.
06:54 You don't even know, you are saying that you are getting information from the media.
06:57 How can you confirm?
06:58 As long as there is no confirmation,
07:00 there is no question,
07:01 there is no doubt that this name is floating somewhere in between.
07:04 To put a filler, this name is floating in the market.
07:06 It is like that, to know the reaction.
07:08 Thank you very much, Mr. Shajil Memon, for being with us.
