"The house mostly concentrated on self-created crises like Balochistan imbroglio, Wana situation and Kalabagh dam, which gravely affected legislation in Senate," he said at a press conference.
He said the treasury members neither took part in debate nor gave a chance to opposition to table legislation.
National issues, he said, could not be resolved at gunpoint but need mutual consensus, adding the government must end military operation in Balochistan keeping in view national interest supreme.
"All Baloch people are patriot Pakistanis, who should be taken into confidence, before undertaking any operation in the province," he added.
He further said the government is also harassing tribal people in Wana at the US behest unnecessarily.
He alleged the government is not taking opposition into confidence over latest situation in Balochistan and Wana, saying it is a sensitive issue. According to Professor Ghafoor, at least 37 innocent people have been killed so far in Balochistan, including children and women.
Instead of militancy action, all internal imbroglios be settled through dialogue and mutual consensus, he suggested.
Talking about the Kalabagh dam, the senator said it would be a wise decision if the project was launched with mutual consensus of all provinces. "Even two chief ministers (Punjab and Sindh) of the ruling party have not been able to develop consensus within their own party ranks, then, how could we expect national consensus on such a major project," he added.
Professor Ghafoor said President Musharraf himself was of the view in December 2002 that national cohesion could not be compromised just for the Kalabagh dam, then, why he changed his stance today. He lamented important national issues were not debated in the parliament and at other national fora, which had created confusion.
The senator further questioned about the government performance during last six years.
Except raising consumer prices manifold, the government has given nothing to masses, which had pushed at least 50 percent of the country's population below the poverty line whereas 40 percent have no access to clean drinking water.
He also demanded that the government should fix oil prices according to international market.
