Rafiq Tarar, an Ex. President and buddy of Sharif family has been given government residence and he has moved from his private home to government provided housing according to GEO TV Channel .
Rafiq Tarar said that according to rules and regulations any ex. president is entitled to live in government housing for the rest of his life after leaving the office. I don't know the rules. But the question is if that was his entitlement, or for any ex. president for that matter, then why he did not demand that earlier? Or better yet, why he moved out of the presidential housing when he left the office?
Is it not something also called nepotism?
Sometimes back, Shaikh Rashid Ahmed said in a GEO TV program 60 Minutes that the judges who did not take the oath according to new PCO on November 2, 2007 and took the option to leave the office and now want to get the job back are presently paid their salaries from the special fund of Prime Minister.
Are there any such rules and regulations to pay salaries to judges who voluntarily did not take the oath and preferred to leave the job?
What you would call this bribery, social welfare or helping the poor unemployed judges?

I am a 23year old law student and have an interest in politics. I believe that President Tarar has been an honest and upright man.My study has revealed that the Presidents Pension Act gives an ex president the right either to house rent OR an official residence.The widow of President Ghulam Ishaq Khan continues to reside in one and so did he.The other Presidents are taking house rent.Thought id correct this misconception....
