PML-N chief in Badin: Violence in Karachi is a conspiracy, alleges Nawaz

Nawaz Sharif expresses deep concern over the deteriorating law and order situation in Karachi.

BADIN:
Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif on Monday expressed deep concern over the deteriorating law and order situation in Karachi, terming it a conspiracy against the people of Pakistan.

Sharif was addressing a rally on the occasion of the 24th death anniversary of political leader Fazil Rahoo in Rahooki, Badin.

“No one will be allowed to disrupt peace in the country, particularly in Karachi,” he said and called upon the government to take cognizance of the law and order situation.

Sharif claimed that his party will expose the forces behind the assassination of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto.

“It is time we refrain from personal political gains and give priority to improve the socio-political situation in the country beyond party lines,” he said.


Sharif said that some unscrupulous elements were bent on creating a divide amongst the people of the country in the name of religion and ethnicity. He also spoke at length about the law and order situation in interior Sindh, saying that dacoits have held the life and property of the people to ransom. The government must expose the faces of these culprits, Nawaz said, adding that PML-N during its regime eliminated the rule of dacoity.

The PML-N chief said that when his party comes into power, it will provide land to the landless farmers of the province without any discrimination.

“Help to the poor people will bring socio-economic prosperity in the country,” he added.

“Politics for someone’s own interests is sinful, but the politics PML-N practices is merely for the sake of the deprived nation,” Nawaz said. He told the gathering that his party will implement its 10-point agenda after coming into power.

Nawaz added that PML-N’s revolution aims at prosperity. “It is not about sending bodies in bags.”
