Those abusing one antoher have come closer in opposition to PML-N: Nawaz

Former prime minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif Saturday said it was pity that those hurling abuses one another in the past had now come together in opposition to the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
The meeting at The Mall Road Lahore with empty chairs had exposed their worth among the public, he said while addressing a huge meeting here.
He said Imran Khan had been criticizing Asif Ali Zardari for the last few years, but he stood with the latter under the umbrella of Tahir-ul-Qadri to achieve his political objectives. He would not succeed in his ‘new adventure’ for becoming prime minister.
Nawaz Sharif said those claiming for a new Pakistan should tell the people how many hospitals and universities they had set up in the country. Those making loud claims of launching big power generation projects in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa had failed to even generate a single unit of electricity.
He said Imran Khan had abused the parliament, but he and his party leaders had drawn salary and perks for the last over four years for being its members. Upholding the parliament’s sanctity was a must as it was elected from the people’s vote, which should be respected, he added.
He said those abusing state institutions and threatening him (Nawaz) of sending to jail would themselves be jailed.
The PML-N leader urged the people to ask Imran Khan what change he had brought in the KP. The so-called tsunami tree plantation project was not being witnessed anywhere, he added.
Nawaz Sharif said record development projects had been completed by the PML-N government in the KP, including Hazara Motorway. It was his desire to inaugurate the motorway and Prime Minister Khaqan Abbasi had also invited him to do so, but he was stopped. The motorway would connect the people of the area with Punjab helping them to improve their lifestyle and socio-economic conditions.
He said the failure of Lahore rally was a proof that the people had rejected Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf, Pakistan People’s Party and Pakistan Awami Tehreek, but today’s mammoth gathering at Haripur reflected the love of people for the PML-N. The crowd here had even overshadowed the PML-N’s meeting in Mominkot, he said and congratulated the people of Haripur. More such gatherings would be seen in future, he added.
He said he fulfilled all the promises, which he had committed to the people. The PML-N government had ended 20-hour long load-shedding, reduced terrorism and launched mega development projects in the country. Every electricity unit added to the grid was because of the PML-N government, he added.
He said he had not done corruption of even a single penny. His party would again emerge victorious in the 2018 general election due to its performance, achievements and welfare-oriented policies. The people would reverse his disqualification by voting for the PML-N, he added.
He said after coming into power the PML-N would provide shelter to homeless people. A welfare scheme would be introduced for salaried class, he added.
Earlier addressing the meeting, Maryam Nawaz termed Haripur a bastion of the PML-N, urging people of the area to continue their support in the next general election.
