CMAG seems concerned about the interests of a particular individual-

Minister of State for Foreign Affairs, Dhunya has said that the Commonwealth Ministerial Action Group (CMAG) seems to be more concerned about the interests of a particular individual apparently from their statement calling for early election.

In a press conference held yesterday, Dhunya said that although the statement has some good points, CMAG showed more concern on finalizing a date for the election then being concerned on establishing a peaceful environment, amending the constitution to set up an election.

“The government is ready to hold early election. However, there are issues to be resolved through the all-party talks. The Majlis has a major role in making way for an election. This is because an election can only be held after amending the constitution,” she said.

Dhunya noted that if the constitution is referred to, then there will be no room for doubts regarding the legitimacy of the current government.

Dhunya however, said that the government welcomes the statement of CMAG despite their apparent concern over the interest of one individual.

The state minister further said that without reaching an agreement through the talks, the nation could face a “civil war which may escalate and a nation like ours going for a civil war means a lot to the infrastructure and economy of the country”.
