00:00Nawaz Sharif Sahib addressed him.
00:03When he addressed him, he talked about his entire political journey,
00:08he complained about how his government was removed from different walls,
00:15the establishment, the judiciary.
00:18And he told us about the oppression he faced in 1993, 1999, or 2017.
00:25And who did it? Listen to him.
00:28What was the reason why our government was overthrown in 1993?
00:34I want to know. I still don't understand the reason.
00:37Mr. Mishra set up a masjid in the country and made the Prime Minister a hijacker.
00:43I was the Prime Minister in the morning and the hijacker at night.
00:46What happened was that such a big conspiracy was made against a sitting Prime Minister.
00:51He was removed.
00:52So they ask us, if you don't take your son's salary, put him in jail, disqualify him,
00:57if you don't meet your basic needs, send a case to the NAB.
01:05The NAB judge is being ordered to decide on this fake case in six months.
01:14Was Mr. Nawaz Sharif's government unfairly sent home before his term was over?
01:20This is absolutely true.
01:21This is factually correct and Mr. Nawaz Sharif is speaking the truth.
01:23But this is not completely true.
01:25If we want to move forward and talk about a grand dialogue, we have to speak the complete truth.
01:30For example, we have to speak the truth that when Benazir's government was overthrown in 1990,
01:36who was the biggest political beneficiary of that regime?
01:41It was Mr. Nawaz Sharif.
01:44When Benazir's second government was overthrown in 1996,
01:47who was the biggest political beneficiary of that regime?
01:52It was Mr. Nawaz Sharif.
01:55In the 1988 elections, when the People's Party elected him,
02:02and he had to fight without an election,
02:05who was his biggest beneficiary?
02:08It was Mr. Nawaz Sharif.
02:11Apart from this, when Mr. Gilani was Prime Minister,
02:13when he was disqualified as Prime Minister,
02:16who played the most active role in that regime?
02:21Who played the most active role in that regime?
02:23It was Mr. Nawaz Sharif.
02:25In this program, we have with us Mr. Sheikh Waqas Akram,
02:27along with him, we have with us a Minister of Welfare,
02:29Senator Dr. Musadeq Malik.
02:31If we want to move forward and correct the course,
02:33do we have to speak the truth,
02:36or do we have to speak the complete truth?
02:41Then we can move forward.
02:42Mr. Sheikh, let's start with you.
02:44Mr. Nawaz Sharif has spoken about his political legacy.
02:50In 1993, his government was dismissed.
02:53In 1997, his government was also dismissed.
02:57In 2013, he faced political difficulties.
03:00So, if we want to move forward and talk about a grand dialogue,
03:05then we have to acknowledge his struggles and his wrongdoings.
03:11What is happening with Mr. Tehreek-e-Insan is wrong, I agree.
03:14But if there have been injustices against political parties in the past,
03:19then we have to acknowledge them and then we can move forward.
03:22You are right.
03:24If there has been injustice against anyone,
03:26and if there has been violence against anyone,
03:28then we have to acknowledge them.
03:30And if this happens in any dialogue or in any stage in the future,
03:35then they should definitely be a part of it.
03:38The South African model will not work in Pakistan
03:40because our circumstances are not favourable.
03:43But one thing is for sure, that we must consider,
03:48that if there has been injustice against me,
03:51if there has been oppression against me,
03:54I have been wronged largely,
03:55I have been kicked out of my government,
03:57I have been thrown out of my government,
03:59my family,
04:00I am talking about the big leaders,
04:02your business, your parties, your family,
04:07everyone has been hurt.
04:09So, this is an injustice.
04:10It should not happen to anyone.
04:11It is happening to us, we are in pain,
04:13we think that we are being oppressed.
04:15If this has happened to someone else,
04:17and it has happened to many parties in the past,
04:19then this is also wrong, it should not happen,
04:21it is a must condemn.
04:23But I have a point in this,
04:25and that is, if you have been wronged,
04:27if you have been wronged,
04:29and you say that this has happened to me,
04:31someone has done this to me in a particular year,
04:33someone has done this to me in a particular year,
04:35and then,
04:37in 2024,
04:39you become a part of the same system
04:41which has been oppressing everyone,
04:43and who has oppressed you,
04:45you sit with the same establishment
04:47and make your daughter the minister,
04:49you sit with the same establishment
04:51and make your daughter the minister,
04:53you sit with the same establishment
04:55and install the PTI's stolen mandate
04:57as your own minister,
04:59then what are you talking about?
05:01If you have been wronged,
05:03then you must stand up to it.
05:05Just do not mention those incidents in a few statements,
05:07then you can speak the whole truth.
05:09Then you can mention Memo Gate,
05:11what happened there,
05:13you can tell the real story of 1996,
05:15what happened there,
05:17you can tell the real story of 1990,
05:19and most importantly,
05:21you can tell the story of what happened to us,
05:23whose beneficiary you are,
05:25you can share the story with people,
05:27how you became the chief minister,
05:29how you became the prime minister,
05:31then people will see the truth in your words,
05:33they will not see the political gimmick,
05:35you can tell the whole truth,
05:37the whole story of 2024,
05:39then the story of PDM.
05:41Doctor, today I listened to
05:43Mr. Shinobhashree's speech,
05:45in which he gave references
05:47of his political past,
05:49I think that was the speech
05:51that he used to give
05:53in 2022,
05:55that was
05:57his speech prior to that.
05:59Because if it is about
06:011993, 97,
06:03and 2013, so many of the political opponents at that time have also been treated unfairly
06:09that they were facilitated to bring down their governments, to bring down the government
06:13of the B.B.
06:14When you had to take Mr. Gilani to the Supreme Court, you became a petitioner in that.
06:19So, if this is a complete acknowledgement, then it should be a cross-support acknowledgement
06:23that we were facilitated as well.
06:25And we ask this to the people of Tariq-e-Insaaf as well.
06:27And in this context, we are asking you as well.
06:30In my opinion, I was also present there when the speech took place.
06:35And I remember that after 2016-17-18, if you look at the speech of Mian Nawaz Sharif,
06:45I felt that the speech started from where the speech ended.
06:51He was saying the same thing when he first mentioned the things.
06:56This is what he was saying at that time as well.
06:58That you should open the whole story from the beginning to the end.
07:01The same thing that my friend was also saying and you are also saying.
07:04And this has always been his demand.
07:07In fact, I remember very well that in the speech he gave before this,
07:13he also said that although many people are not alive,
07:16but start talking to Justice Muneer.
07:19And start talking to Malik Ghulam Muhammad.
07:21Start talking to Maulvi Tameezuddin.
07:24And the martyrdom of Bhutto Sahib, which we call Judicial Murder.
07:31Start talking to him.
07:33So anything should be kept in mind.
07:35There is no doubt in this.
07:37I do not have any kind of disagreement with my friends.
07:43But they are saying that the South African model will not work in Pakistan.
07:47I will only request them that the South Asian model is not working in Pakistan.
07:52So if there is a model other than the one that is not working.
07:55In which there is truth, truth, reconciliation,
08:00there is a lack of political tension.
08:03You have to come and take the country.
08:05So what is the harm in trying to do that?
08:08We had a political speech today.
08:10You said that you mentioned the oppressors who were on you.
08:14This is their right.
08:16There are many oppressors besides that.
08:18Everyone should be mentioned.
08:19There is no doubt about this.
08:21I think the door they are trying to open,
08:24is a way to overcome all kinds of oppression that has happened in our political history.
08:32So let's go.
08:34You say more things should be mentioned.
