Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani said on Monday that the government was committed to restoring peace of Karachi and, for that purpose; it was dealing with the target killers relentlessly.
The prime minister was speaking at the foundation stone laying ceremony of the new Supreme Court Bar Association (SCBA) building here on Monday.
Announcing a grant of Rs 200 million for the construction of the new SCBA building, the prime minister said it was not an occasion only to inaugurate a building of an important civil society institution but also of putting up a structure that will further enhance the intellectual potential of this apex bar.
The prime minister said the passage of the 18th and 19th Constitutional Amendments by the present Parliament was a giant step forward and added that these amendments showed the maturity, strength and dynamism of our political system.
He said that he had a firm conviction that if democracy functioned on a sustainable basis, the system could resolve the contemporary issues amicably that confront the nation.
