Nawaz Sharif sees need for ‘mass uprising’
Atul Aneja
DUBAI: The former Prime Minister of Pakistan, Nawaz Sharif, has spoken of the need for “a mass uprising” in Pakistan in the context of General Musharraf’s latest actions.
During the course of an exclusive telephonic interview to The Hindu on Monday, he predicted: “The opposition to [Gen. Musharraf’s move] is going to increase, it is going to pick up momentum in the coming days because this sort of ruthless action can never be acceptable to our civil society.”
Nevertheless, he acknowledged that “external forces” are going to play their part in shaping events in Pakistan. “I wish that the United States, which is hardening its stance since yesterday, declares very clearly that this [Gen. Musharraf’s action] is unacceptable and this must be reversed.”
