2018 will be the year for people to vote in or vote out any party: Nawaz

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Saturday said 2018 would be the year for Pakistanis to judge and decide which political party to vote into power.

“They [citizens] will have a chance to vote in or vote out any party,” he said.

“All political forces have a stake in the democratic system, and we all know that loyalty to the Constitution is imperative for us, and it is no longer an issue of choice,” the prime minister said in his statement.

Nawaz further said that no system is perfect, but the Constitution and parliamentary democracy are the only tools to remove imperfections in the existing system.

“We will provide a better and prosperous Pakistan when we enter in the election mode in 2018,” said the premier.

The prime minister issued this statement following the statements of protesting parties, as well as the Pakistan Aawami Tehreek's recent remarks alleging that 2015 would be election year.

One of his well wisher, and he has quite a few very near to him whom he has ignored on previous occasion, should remind him that democraticaly elected Governments do not usualy complete their terms when they fail to resolve National issues on which they were elected and came to office. They volunteer and resign or forced out of the office, the choice is usualy with the incumbent leader.
