| Govt won't make deal with plunderers: PM |
| 2007-04-09 |
| The government has made no deal with any party and no alliance will be forged with those who “plundered the country”, Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz said here on Sunday. “The PML is a stable party. We will take the country forward. We have not hammered out any deal with any party. We will not forge alliance with those who plundered the country,” the prime minister told a public meeting after laying the foundation stone for Ghourgushti Environment Park in Attock district. He said contacts and negotiations with other political parties were going on, but these were a routine part of the political process. He predicted that politicians “who looted and plundered the national exchequer” will not return for the elections as they would not be able to face the public. Aziz said extremism had no place in Pakistan. “We will take forward the country in the name of Islam. Our religion does not allow extremism and terrorism. If there is no peace and tranquillity in the country, there will be no development,” he said. |
