"If the chief justice wants to implement what he said, he should take suo motu on themisuse of NAB law," he added.
In response to a question, Nawaz hit out at Pakistan Peoples Party chief Asif Zardari, saying the party should first start getting more than 400-500 votes in Punjab and then talk about bringing a government in the province.
Earlier, Nawaz said that Pakistan will not progress if things continue like this, adding that, "the country belongs to all the provinces, not just one province or specific section of society".
Nawaz also said that if the time comes to give a 'call' to supporters to save democracy, no one can stop him from doing so.

"We are standing with the Constitution and will continue to do so. Both judges and lawmakers take an oath on the Constitution, if parliamentarians talk about protecting the Constitution then they should," he said further.
