Nawaz Sharif... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf...
has said that his party will play an active role for making Pakistain a dignified, independent and prosperous country in real sense.
Addressing the party parliamentarians, leaders and workers belonging to Gujranwala, he said that the PML-N would again get the country to the point where the ratio of its progress was much more in the region, job opportunities for youth were increasing, there was conducive atmosphere for local and foreign investment and the people were satisfied and confident with regard to their future. Green passport and green flag were seen with dignity throughout the world.
He said that political parties were asset of the country and a symbol of the national unity and solidarity but unfortunately the dictators in Pakistain played games for dividing political parties, occupying their offices, depriving them of their leadership and formed the parties of their choices as a result of which not only democratic process was damaged but the national unity and solidarity were also put at stake. He said that nation was divided due to different ideas. Had the democratic process not been hindered in 1999, Pakistain would have been become the Asian tiger in economic sense, he said.
He said that it was the result of long dictatorship that Pakistain had lost its image in the comity of nations and was facing the crisis of basic needs like gas, electricity and energy.
He said that poverty and unemployment were increasing, but the party would work to bring Pakistain again to the place where it was left in October 1999. "We not only had made Pakistain invincible but despite restrictions imposed due to atomic kabooms, Pakistain was included in the rank of wheat exporting countries," he said.
