Former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif has said that his party Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz is ready to implement the Charter of Democracy (CoD) which is still a valid document.
Involvement of all parties is necessary for genuine implementation of the CoD, he said
Speaking about the common experiences of the PML-N and Pakistan People's Party (PPP) in the 1980s and the 1990s, he said: "Now the time has come that we move ahead with our principled stance without mudslinging, abusing and leg pulling each other."
On his demand to reinstate the deposed judges contrary to the CoD, Sharif said, "I am still keeping my pledge and I am struggling for reinstatement of the deposed judges because they refused to take oath under the PCO."
He said that his party had only one demand from the PPP, the judges' reinstatement.
PML-N had supported PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari without any condition and had joined the federal government on Zardari's insistence, he added.
