The reference of Chief Justice Chaudry is a legal issue that shouldn't be politicised'
If Pakistan is not doing enough to fight terrorism, I would ask which country is?
' I am allowed to wear the uniform and be president till the end of this year '
' Nobody has the right to tell me that he is a better Muslim '

' The choice is whether we are to be a progressive Islamic state or a retrogressive one '
