Fazl replaces Jinnah's picture with Mufti's

ISLAMABAD: Maulana Fazlur Rehman, the leader of the opposition in the National Assembly, has replaced the portrait of Quaid-e-Azam in his parliament chamber with a photograph of his father, the late Mufti Mehmood. Traditionally, a portrait of the Quaid is displayed at every government office. A senior MMA leader refused to comment on the issue. He said that only Rehman could explain why he had removed Mr Jinnah's portrait from his chamber. Rehman was not available for comment. It was not known when Rehman replaced the Quaid's portrait with the Mufti's.
