ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani on Tuesday said, “PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif has needed to work hard to remove me from Prime Ministership”.

Talking to newsmen on board his flight to Britain‚ he said that PML-N should not betray being a unit of federation. “No one can threaten me to resign and I would use all constitutional options for defence”, he added.

If PML-N has courage, first it should resign from assemblies to start movement against the government, the Prime Minister maintained.

The PM said, “I have no lust for power, however, neither I will resign unconstitutionally nor fulfill the wishes of opposition.”

He said that first the opposition tried its best to stop the Senate polls and now it is trying to make hurdles in the coming budget. He said that decision about the general polls would be taken after consultations with the allied parties.
