Imran Niazi wasted precious time of nation with politics of sit-ins, lockdowns, CM says
LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Friday said that there could be no other priority of the government than the welfare of the people.
He said nothing could stall the speedy journey of development in the province, and development in different sectors, including health, education and infrastructure, is an example of its own and records have been set by completing the projects within the stipulated period of time. Meanwhile, Punjab is leading in effective utilisation of information technology tools and people have been provided with the best services by promoting information and communication technologies in public sector departments, he added.
The chief minister said the elimination of load-shedding is a historic achievement of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) government. The darkness of load-shedding, which was earlier spread everywhere, has been eliminated and the commitment and hard work with which energy projects have been completed, have no match in the 70-year-long history of the country.
Despite hindrances created by some political elements, energy projects have been completed in a record period of time and due to it, load-shedding has become a thing of the past. We have given priority to public service, instead of indulging in the politics of lies and baseless allegations, and all our steps have targeted public welfare and prosperity of the masses.
The sit-in party only did the politics of lies and baseless allegations instead of solving the problems of the people and bringing prosperity in their province. He said that previous rulers did not take any step to overcome the energy crisis and due to the plunder and corruption of these rulers, the country was made a hostage to darkness. The corrupt and defeated elements even tried to delay energy and other public welfare projects and today, these elements are shameful of their deeds.
He also said that Imran Niazi wasted the nation’s precious time with his negative politics of sit-ins and lockdowns. How will these elements that have shown worst performance in their province, now face the people? The nation in the elections of 2018, he said, will decide the fate of those who have served them and will also decide about the elements that obstructed the journey of development.
Liars have no value before the PML-N’s politics of public service. The days of the elements engaged in the politics of lies, chaos and hypocrisy are numbered. The nation has suffered a lot due to the politics of sit-ins, agitation and chaos, said the chief minister while adding that Imran Niazi has set world-record of telling lies and the conscious people of Pakistan are now fed up with the deceit and blame-games of the PTI chief. Even the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa are sick of the negative politics of lies, U-turns and allegations and the sit-in group will not get anything except humiliation in the next elections.
The PML-N will further expedite the journey of development and prosperity by getting a majority in the upcoming elections with the power of vote, concluded Shehbaz.
