Karachi: March 9, 2011. (PCP) Dr. Nazir S Bhatti, President of Pakistan Christian Congress PCC clarified that I always condemned selection on reserved minority seats in Parliament of Pakistan but demanded democratic election of Christians through Dual Voting rights. PCC condemned imposition of Joint Electorate which enabled Selection of Christians on reserved seats in National assembly of Pakistan and Four provincial Assemblies in 2002, by military ruler General Parvez Mushhraf after abolishing Separate Electorate. The Christians in Pakistan were enjoying Separate Electorate System in which Christian voters were electing their parliamentarians with their vote from 1985-2000. The Christian elected under Separate Electorate raised voice for oppressed Christian nation which was disliked by establishment and Muslim Political parties. To make election system for minorities transparent, The Pakistan Christian Congress PCC demanded Dual Voting system for Christian which was practiced by Muslims of Azad Kashmir that Christian may elect their representation on reserved seat and may cast their vote for Muslim parties in their respective constituencies. To hijack Christian vote bank, the leading Muslim Political parties, establishment and few tools of Muslim parties in Christians demanded Joint Election System. “I always preferred to reach in parliament with Christian votes instead of relying on Selection by Muslim Political Parties in Pakistan” said Nazir Bhatti The news item appeared in section of national and international press that I am in race to replace Martyr Shahbaz Bhatti is nothing but my character assassination as I never applied for selection to any Muslim Political party for National Assembly seat nor my name is with Election Commission of Pakistan on any priority list submitted by any Muslim party. I am struggling for equal basic democratic of poor Pakistani Christian and I have denied to join cabinet of military rulers. It is on record that secret agencies of Pakistan offered me winning seat in National Assembly of Pakistan in national general elections but I never bargained on principals. I have clearly exposed names of secret agencies high ups in meetings with me in my book “Trial of Pakistani Christian Nation” then how I can be in a race of Selection instead of power of votes. “I claim that demand of Christian Separate Province on division of Punjab is dream of millions of Christian youth and it is constitutional demand because if a name of province can be changed and new province of Gillgit-Baltistan can be formed then demand of Separate Christian Province is not un-constitutional” added Nazir Bhatti Nazir Bhatti, Chief of PCC urged government of Pakistan to nominate family member of Martyr Shahbaz Bhatti on a seat vacant after is assassination on his great services for repeal of blasphemy law.
