Pak: Gilani rules out executive, judiciary war
Islamabad: Amid fears of a looming clash between the executive and judiciary over high-profile corruption cases, Pakistan Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani has said his government believes in a policy of reconciliation and there was no conflict among state institutions.
Gilani's remarks, made in the course of a televised address to the nation last night, came against the backdrop of a suo moto case initiated by the Supreme Court following media reports that the government was planning to sack some members of the superior judiciary.
The apex court took up the case even after Gilani denied the media reports.
The premier said there was no chance of a clash between the various institutions of the state as his government believes in a policy of reconciliation and would stick to this path.
