Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif said his government would establish friendly ties with India, adding that he would invite Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to his oath-taking ceremony in Islamabad.
Speaking to foreign correspondents at his Raiwind residence, Sharif said after making a new government, he wanted to end tension between the countries and restart the relation where it was in 1999.
He called upon the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf to respect the mandate of the people and accept the results of the elections.
Nawaz further said his government would devise a national policy to tackle the problem of terrorism.
Referring to the attack on PML-N leader Sanaullah Zehri in Balochistan, he said it was not fair to say that terrorism had not affected the PML-N.
“We will contact every party for the purpose of forming our policy on terrorism,” he said, adding that the PML-N government would respect the mandate given to parties by the people.
He said economic revival was the PML-N’s top priority.
To a question pertaining to US drone attacks in Pakistan’s north-western Tribal Areas, Nawaz said his government would try to convince the US to stop the attacks. He said his government would help the US forces withdraw from Afghanistan.
He further said the PML-N government in its first 100 days would come out with policies on all major issues confronting Pakistan, such as terrorism, economy etc.
He added that Pakistan would become the Asian tiger in his tenure.
Has any Prime Minister or President of PAKISTAN ever been invited by any Prime Minster or President of India to attend the oath taking ceremony?
There is nothing preventing Pakistan to be the fist one but you don't have to go head over heals to do this.
Democratic decision as are arrived at through a certain process and you need not come across besotted in love for INDIA this. Because of the sensitive nature of Pakistan’s relationship with India the matter could have been discussed at length before making it public.
This is first of many mistakes that the incumbent PM will make before his departure.
