Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf said Saturday he would face impeachment with a democratic spirit.
During a meeting with Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) leader Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain here, Musharraf said he would face the impeachment to be leveled by the ruling coalition and advised the ruling party to adopt a thoughtful way.
Musharraf said Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif was doing revengeful politics and also said he would not dissolve assemblies, the News Network International news agency reported.
Musharraf said he had served the country and he neither robbed the country nor was involved in any corruption.
He said the constitutional charges against him were all baseless and he had taken the decision declaring a state of emergency in the best interest of the country.
Musharraf said he wanted to see what kind of charges the ruling party would bring against him and then he would decide for his future. He also advised the ruling party to avoid worsening the situation of the country for the best wishes of only one party.
Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain advised Musharraf to avoid dissolving assemblies, saying if he wanted to do so then PML-Q would not support him for this act.
He told Musharraf that they would support him in facing the impeachment.
Local media reports said Musharraf had signed a summary by the government to convene a session of National Assembly on the impeachment on Monday.
