LAHORE:

Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP) Central Information Secretary Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Saturday announced that the party would hold worker conventions and public gatherings across the country in preparation for the upcoming general elections from October 13.

Addressing a news conference, she said: "Under the leadership of Jahangir Khan Tareen and IPP President Abdul Aleem Khan, the party has decided to kick-start the countrywide campaign from Friday.”

She pointed out that while some parties promoted the slogan of “respect the vote”, the IPP will give "respect to the voters" – who are the real stakeholders in the progress, prosperity, and development of the country.

She said the IPP aimed to unite the nation, which was divided along religious and political lines.

She said the party's manifesto revolved around working towards the country's progress while seeking the trust and input of the public.

Firdous stressed that the nation currently needed parties focused on delivering services rather than those relying solely on slogans.

She welcomed and endorsed the decisions of the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), saying: "We support and endorse all the policies and initiatives of the SIFC."

According to her, the SIFC held the potential to attract both foreign and domestic investment to Pakistan, contributing significantly to the country's development and economic strengthening.

Firdous believed that the SIFC was a national initiative aimed at promoting Pakistan's development and progress, with the potential to strengthen the country's economy.

“A strong economy is essential for ensuring the nation's security.”

She expressed her confidence that the decisions made by the SIFC will contribute to the country's progress.
