Nawaz Sharif vows to book looters of national exchequer
Friday, November 2nd, 2012 12:16:00 by Faisal FarooqPakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif has said that the time had come to hold the looters of national wealth accountable and recover the pilfered public money.
Addressing a party meeting in Raiwind, the PML-N chief said that every single penny looted by corrupt politicians should be returned and deposited back in the national exchequer.
Offering a complete change, the former two-time premier stated that his party would make the country a welfare state after coming to power.
He promised to reconnect the development process from the point where it had been disrupted by his nemesis General (r) Pervez Musharraf, who overthrew his government in a bloodless military coup on October 12, 1999.
The PML-N chief further said that due to the selfish and anti-masses policies of the sitting Pakistan People’s Party (PPP)-led government, the countrymen were not getting benefits of the restored democracy.
He said that the sitting political leadership had plundered the national exchequer with both hands, and that it had proved itself as the worst-ever democratic government in the country’s history.
Nawaz Sharif deplored that bad management and rampant corruption had damaged the country apart from causing problems for the countrymen.
He asked the party activists to start preparations of general elections and convey the message to the public that the PML-N would put the country to road to progress and prosperity by resolving economic issues on priority basis.
He also urged PML-N activists and office bearers to accelerate efforts for reorganizing the party, and make arrangements for upcoming general polls.
He claimed that the PML-N’s credibility was increasing with each passing day, and that it would regain power after general polls.
The entry of other parties’ renowned politicians in the PML-N was a solid proof of its increasing popularity, he added.
