Minister for Information and Broadcasting Qamar Zaman Kaira acknowledged the services of military and judiciary but added that both the institutions have no role to play when it comes to Constitutional legislation.

Briefing the media persons following the Federal Cabinet's meeting, Kaira said it would be unfair to pull back into politics the institutions which had to go through great trouble to dissociate themselves from this business.

He told the reporters that the Cabinet meeting discussed nothing in connection with the long march on Islamabad. However, responding to questions in this regard Kaira accused Tahirul Qadri of playing double politics. "On the one hand he (Qadri) speaks in favor of the Constitution while on the other hand deviates defies the same," the Information Minister said.

He advised Tahirul Qadri to first get his party registered at the Election Commission of Pakistan and then put forward his suggestions.

Kaira said he could not disclose the government's strategy over the long march but added the security of Islamabad citizens is the state's responsibility. The concerned province will provide security to the people on the routes through which the participants of the rally will pass, he added.

He said the Cabinet meeting expressed serious concern on the issue of gas shortage in the country and formed a committee comprising three ministers to resolve it.The Cabinet also granted approval to several agreements with other countries.
