Senator Irfanul Haque Siddique has said that economic stability was among the challenges faced by Pakistan which required political steadiness and continuation of economic policies.

During a discussion with leaders of Pakistani community at Pakistan Embassy, Washington DC, the PML-N stalwart and senator maintained that unreliability and disruption in the policies could prove fatal for the economy.

Irfan Siddique said that it was a matter of satisfaction that the political leadership, institutions and other stakeholders of the country were very well cognisant that the past mistakes should not be repeated.

He opined that the PML-N leadership had put the country on the path of progress, the growth rate increased to over 6% and eliminated scourge of terrorism, but the incidents of 2017 had inflicted huge damage to that journey of progress and prosperity, a press release on Saturday said.
