Is this a timely action ? Without pointing the finger at others he and PM should resign.

When will you resign. You are the one responsible for this situation. You are over the defence secretary, you are the one destabilized country last October with your moronic actions. Please, please resign. You are not a president, you are a joker.

Remember he said if RW is appointed as PM again he would resign within 5 minutes. Months have gone by and may be his 5 minutes is 5 years. What a joker.
