Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz President Nawaz Sharif on Friday said he would bring real change in the country if given an opportunity to rule.

Addressing electoral candidates on Friday, he said the challenges being faced by the country were due to corruption of the rulers.

Nawaz said he had vowed to declare unconstitutional the steps of former president Pervez Musharraf and he kept his promise.

The PML-N chief said they were not struggling to become prime minister or chief minister but to steer the country out of troubled waters.

Criticising his political rivals, he said they were unconscious of the real problems faced by the nation and measures to tackle these problems.

He said due to the deeds of former leaders, Pakistan had been isolated in the world and was being seen with hate.

Nawaz vowed to bring an end to load shedding, terrorism, unemployment and inflation and make Pakistan the “Asian Tiger”.

He said other political leaders had nothing but hollow slogans to offer that had nothing to do with practical dimension of the challenges faced by the people.

Criticising former president Musharraf, he said he was a shortsighted leader who surrendered before then US leadership after a single telephone call and set aside national interests.

“History bears testimony that when my party came to power in the past, it introduced revolutionary projects for agricultural and industrial progress,” the PML-N chief said, adding that if the nation gave him another opportunity in the forthcoming elections, they would link Karachi and Peshawar through motorway.

He regretted that several commissions, including East Pakistan tragedy and Abbotabad, were formed but their reports had not been made public.

Nawaz later took oath from party candidates for not indulging in corruption and to follow party decisions to resolve the problems of the country.

He asked those not getting the ticket to remain patient, not leave the party as they would be accommodated in local government elections.
