Speaking at a laptop distribution ceremony in Islamabad on Friday, Sharif said that, “If they had let us construct, if we hadn’t been thrown out, if we hadn’t been sent to jail, if we hadn’t been banished, today Pakistan would have been a country where degree holders got jobs as soon as they graduated. That is the Pakistan we were trying create.”
The PML-N leader accused the current government of non-cooperation, stating that had they cooperated with the Punjab government, Pakistan would have had a different face today.
He said that with the work being done by the current regime, it was hard for him to imagine a prospering Pakistan.
Sharif called on the people to “recognise those people who had devoted themselves to serve the country”.
He said that education is flourishing in Punjab and their work was standing out. Sharif said his party had taken up the role to make a “progressive” Pakistan by making sure that the youth could hold their heads up high.

yes indeed.......you would have encouraged Musharaff to re-try Kargil.
Oops he meant to say Ittefaq and Sharif family would have prospered if we had had more time. If two terms arent enough how much ? , maybe ameerul momineen worthy time?
Oh here we go again, the PPP says the same thing "if only we had more time" for god sakes people think with your head when voting not with your heart. The PPP had all the time in the world and still we are in the toilet.
What difference did you make in the life of common person of Punjab in last government? South Punjab is under the severe stress like any other part of country. People are dying of hunger and committing suicide. Law and order situation has worsen during last few years. Don't try to fool public with your hollow slogans.
25 years in power, 5 government terms in center & punjab, and Mr Sharif wants MORE time to rule over this poor country!!! Actions speak louder than your hollow promises
Lahore would've prospered not Pakistan. This would've further divided Punjabis from Pathans, Balochis, and Sindhis.
Pakistan or Sherif Family would have prospered more?
