Sanctity of vote to be another point of PML-N manifesto: Talal

Minister of State for Interior Talal Badar Chaudhary Saturday said sanctity of vote would be yet another agenda point of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) manifesto for the next general election.
Former prime minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif would highlight it during his public meeting scheduled to be held at Jaranwala on January 27, he said addressing a press conference at Municipal Committee Jaranwala.
Talal Chaudhary said it had further enhanced the importance of the public meeting as Nawaz Sharif would highlight sanctity of vote in it.
He said there was dire need of reforms in the Nizam-e-Adl (judicial system) so that people could get speedy and cheap justice at their doorsteps and the PML-N had also included it in its next election agenda. Highlighting its government performance, including development work, would be another feature of its election campaign, he added.
He said when the PML-N came into power, the country was plunged into darkness with daily long duration of load-shedding
while terrorism had chocked the entire development process. However, the visionary leadership of Nawaz Sharif had steered the country out of crises by overcoming the menace of load-shedding and terrorism, he added.
The PML-N government, he said, had also put the country on road to progress and prosperity through launching projects like China Pakistan Economic Corridor.
He said the former prime minister had not only made Pakistan an atomic power but also brought revolutionary changes in education and health sectors and now the people were getting maximum benefits of his endeavours.
He said Jaranwala was a citadel of the PML-N and its people loved Nawaz Sharif very much. Nawaz Sharif had announced a motorway for the area and 90 per cent work on it had been completed, he added.
The minister said roads network had been extended to rural areas whereas an exports complex had also been completed in Jaranwala and construction of 250-bed hospital would start soon to provide the best health facilities to people.
He criticized the opposition, which, he said, was using religion for their political gains. The protest of joint opposition in Lahore had failed badly as people were fully aware of their designs and they would also reject them in the next election by voting and supporting the PML-N which was the only party to materialize the dream of progress and prosperity in Pakistan, he added.
Federal Parliamentary Secretary Chaudhary Shehbaz Babar and Member of the Punjab Assembly Rae Haidar were also present in the conference.
