Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif Monday asserted that the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) coalition government had prevented the country from defaulting, averting a situation where petrol could potentially have been priced at Rs1,000 per litre today.
His comments came during a consultative meeting of his party via video link from London during which he also emphasised that the PML-N has made a sincere sacrifice to rescue Pakistan from economic collapse and has borne the consequences for the nation’s sake, expressing confidence that his party would achieve success in the upcoming elections.
Furthermore, the PML-N supremo accused former army chief General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa, ex-Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) chief General (retd) Faiz Hamid, and former chief justice Mian Saqib Nisar of being responsible for the current state of affairs in the country.
Nawaz acknowledged that while some damages could be overcome in life, others remained insurmountable.
“Today, the poor is craving for bread. Who brought the country to this state,” the senior politician questioned, regretting how people were worried about putting two-time meals on their table.
“With Nawabshah Sharif as prime minister, the evil of inflation will be lessened,” he continued.
