Truth and Reconciliation Commission in the PPPP manifesto

Notice the irony in the following? The Co Chairperson (notice the missing "for life ?) of the PPPP has said time is "ripe" to strengthen the democratic institutions.


Time ripe to strengthen democratic institutions: Zardari ISLAMABAD, Feb 26 (APP): The time is ripe for political forces to strengthen the democratic institutions and bury the conspiracies of anti democratic forces forever, co-chairman of Pakistan People's Party Parliamentarians (PPPP) Asif Ali Zardari Monday said. Addressing a meeting of losing PPPP candidates from Sindh at his house, Asif Ali Zardari said that it was incumbent upon the democratic dispensation to strengthen the institutions rather than individuals as the public has given them mandate for maintaining the supremacy of constitutional institutions in the country. Playing its role, Pakistan People's Party will also pursue its manifesto objective of setting up a Truth and Reconciliation Commission to recognize and accord respect to the victims of injustices, the PPPP co-chairman said, and, “apology to the people of Balochistan was the first step in this direction.” (Posted @ 21:46 PS
