PML-N has filed an application (petition) on Friday October 15, 2010 requesting to the Chief Justice of Pakistan Justice Iftikhar Choudhry that there was no consultation and advice was taken or considered from Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz group before the decision taken by the President, the Prime Minister and the Chief Justice to remove the Top Level Judges. The petitioner of PML-N has said in its petition that PML-N is the second largest political party in the National Assembly of Pakistan and is working as the biggest opposition party in Pakistan's politics. Therefore it was necessary to get favour of this party's higher leadership before taking the decision of the removal of judges. So the Chief Justice Supreme Court of Pakistan should take appropriate action in this matter and the advice may be issued to the President and the Prime Minister to get consultation and favour of PML-N before the implementation and compliance of the orders to remove top level judges and to appoint new judges on the vacant posts against their removal.

I, as a political analyst and column writer, give my opinion that President Asif Ali Zardari will overcome this newly created critical political situation during the next week. The Supreme Court of Pakistan may also start hearing of the application and petition of PML-N after one week if the matter would not be solved. I will support the decision of the President Asif Ali Zardari if he consults the PML-N leadership. PPP has the support of its coalition partners MQM and ANP in all the provinces. MQM Chief Altaf Hussain is also in suspicion that Gilani Government might not start any operation against MQM workers in Karachi. For about one year, there is an endless target killing incidents against MQM workers are being observed but Sindh Government has not been able to take strong action against the actual real killers of MQM workers. MQM Chief Altaf Hussain while addressing telephonically from London in a large By-Election Campaign public gathering on Friday night October 15, 2010 today, said, "Judiciary and Government should respect each other and avoid to be indulged in any type of conspiracy against MQM workers." It is also necessary for PPP that it would get favour and consultation of PML-N Chief Mian Nawaz Sharif or its party leadership because in Punjab PML-N is a single ruling party and Punjab is the biggest province of Pakistan. Though the Governor in Punjab is from PPP and the Coalition Government of PPP and PML-N is working in a better way in Punjab province.

The coalition governments of all the main and big political parties are working in a better way and have satisfactory performance in all the four provinces. Therefore I think that this government will surely complete its five years tenure from 2008 to 2013 to provide a clean and neat pathway to the democracy in the country. I also hope that General Ashfaq Pervez Kiani will not intervene this smooth running of the government and I am sure that he will not take over the government by force. General Kiani believes in transparent democratic government in the country, it was why that he called back and removed all the Army Officers working at important posts in different government departments after the formation of government as a result of General Election 2008.
