PML-Q rejects new package

ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) on Saturday rejected the new package for Northern Areas approved by the federal government.

PML-Q’s member in the National Assembly Marvi Memon, who is in charge of the party’s Gilgit-Baltistan affairs, in a statement said the Gilgit-Baltistan (Empowerment and Self Governance) Order 2009, as approved by the cabinet, failed to give provisional provincial status to the region.

It was also short of AJK-style self-governance, the longstanding demand of the people of the Northern Areas, she added. http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=2009\08\30\story_30-8-2009_pg1_4
