ISLAMABAD: Minister for Interior Ahsan Iqbal said on Monday former prime minister Nawaz Sharif was the most popular leader among masses and the PML-N was united under his dynamic leadership.
Talking to a private news channel, the minister said there was no rift in the party and people had always voted for Nawaz Sharif.
He said the continuity of the system and smooth transition of power was essential for strengthening democracy in the country.
Ahsan Iqbal said there was a need to develop harmony among the state institutions as internal stability was imperative to face external challenges.
The minister, to a question, said the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was a mega development project and anti-Pakistan forces were trying to sabotage it.
Iqbal said Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) was an immature political party and running a campaign against the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government to create chaos in the country.
“PML-N has always shown respect for the national institutions and never wanted a confrontation with them,” he said, adding rule of law was vital to run affairs of the country.
The minister said freedom of expression was the right of everyone while remaining within the domain of law and the constitution, and no one would be allowed to misuse social media.
He said steps would be taken to prepare and implement the code of conduct for social media.
Iqbal said armed forces of Pakistan were carrying out operations against terrorism in the country.

Nawaz’s leadership is anything but DYNAMIC. Yes, he is the one who has taken corruption in politics to new heights.
This man is still around? He threatened to resign if Gen Musharraf was allowed to proceed abroad. Gen Musharraf is abroad and Mr Ahsan Iqbal has still not resigned! No integrity.
