LAHORE: Ousted Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif said on Monday that it was time for the nation to build Pakistan that was envisioned by Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Sharif was talking to reporters during his visit to Allama Iqbal’s mausoleum in Lahore.
Nawaz Sharif said that rule of law and democracy derailed after the death of Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah. He said that Pakistan had suffered because it had adopted the doctrine of necessity over the years.
Nawaz spoke highly of his third tenure as the country’s prime minister, stating that people were a witness to the fact that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) had delivered during the past four years.
“We worked on electricity generation projects and delivered in other areas well,” he said. “I will fight for the supremacy of people’s mandate till my last breath,” he concluded.
