Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif has said that his party not only supported the creation of Bahawalpur province, but also wanted the status of Bahawalpur as state to be restored.
He expressed these views during a meeting with former deputy speaker of the National Assembly Jafar Iqbal, MNA Ishrat Ashraf and MPA Zaib Jafar at PML-N Secretariat, Lahore.
The PML-N president said has sought “Charter of Pakistan” for the next 10-15 years to provide basis for a strong economy and energy, education, governance and infrastructure sectors.
Bashing the PPP government for destabilising the country by increasing the plight of the people, he said his government’s policies in 1990-91 were exemplary for reviving the economy.
“Pakistan was progressing faster than India and we had initiated the motorway and modern telecommunication projects, but the powers of status quo quashed our efforts of making Pakistan a developed country by overthrowing our government,” Nawaz said. “Our policies earned respect for Pakistan and forced India to accept the reality of Pakistan and then Indian prime minister came to Lahore with a message of peace,” Nawaz said.
“But Musharraf damaged all my efforts,” he added.
The PML-N chief praised the Punjab government for having zero-tolerance policy against corruption, which was obvious from the fact that there was no corruption scandal in Punjab during the PML-N government.
You mean he wants Nawab of Bahawalpur officially replaced by Army Generals, Corrupt Politicians and deviant Arabs seeking sex.
he is playing the bahawalpur card to save himself from fading. he need supports so he is hitting the weak links of every discussion. soon he will go for south punjab and ask them to claim there province.
I do not understand why they never do something when they are in power PPP will be saying same while sitting in opposition. stop making everyone fool, who cares BWP is state or not. more important is the position of people if that is not good then nothing is worth, anyways it will create more funds for politions to have more money this is call indirect bribe. Hasan Ali Gilani supported Mr. Sharif on his return for the fact to get big claim from arrigation department to run canal through his land royality forever.
