Islamabad: Rana Sana Ullah federal minister and political advisor to Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif has refused to accept Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan hero of Pakistan.

Talking to a private TV Channel Rana Sana Ullah said Dr A Q Khan cannot be described as hero. Hero is the one who conducted nuclear test and made Pakistan a nuclear power. This was started by former prime minister Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto. '

He held whatever credit is due to Dr A Q Khan as scientist, it is given to him. But he is not leader.

It is said under jealousy and malice Nawaz Sharif did not want to conduct nuclear test.

He said that Field Marshal has very clear thinking that political talks should be held between political parties and he is not a hindrance in this regard. On the other hand he said he would be happy over such talks.

Rana Sana said Imran Khan should send message for talks to Nawaz Sharif and president Asif Ali Zardari instead of expressing desire to negotiate with establishment. Former Prime Minister will have to hold talk with government.
