And if the majority party still insisted on the basis of its numerical strength it should be made clear that even if such a constitution was passed, it would not be a success and the majority party would be fully responsible for the results.
He said the present critical situation was the result of successive mistakes committed from late 1968 to the polling day, Now any step not taken in the right direction might put the very existence of the country into jeopardy.
Ataur Rahman
The Chief of the Pakistan National League, Mr. Ataur Rahman Khan termed Mr. Bhutto's stand as a move to divide the country.
He said that Mr. Bhutto should have attended the National Assembly session and taken part in discussion on the constitution. In case he had failed in his efforts then only Mr. Bhutto could take such a decision, Mr. Ataur Rahman Khan said.
Salam Khan
Mr. Abdus Salam Khan, former President of East Pakistan PDP thought that Mr. Bhutto's decision not to come to attend the Assembly was inappropriate. He said that for the purpose of transfer of power to people's Government and for framing of a constitution, the participation of Mr. Bhutto and his party MNAs in the forthcoming National Assembly Session would be a wise decision.
