Buzdar said Indian premier Narendra Modi’s government had put peace of the region at stake for getting more seats in elections in his country.
Pakistan’ policy of peace and restraint should not be construed as its weakness, he warned.
The CM said that Prime Minister Imran Khan had acted as a statesman in the ongoing situation and his positive steps had boosted the image of the country.
The premier has proved through practical steps that he is a proponent of peace. He said India should shun war hysteria and hold dialogue because war is not a solution to any problem.
