Advocate Nadeem Yousuf while talking to KNB states –“Legally there is no bar in a politician son or daughter qualifies for a Government job by following due procedure without any undue influence which has been followed clearly in this case. We need to be more matured in our responses while analyzing the contours of the burning issues.
Right to live with dignity is basic human right of all and we have much burning issues that go unaddressed and do not face our Criticism and it is mainly because we entangle ourselves in non –issues.”
