Nawaz Sharif arrives in Karachi

KARACHI: Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif arrived in Karachi today, where he will attend the party’s Sindh Council meeting.

According to sources, the party elections for the Sindh Council will take place during today’s meeting. Members will elect the new provincial leader and general secretary.

While talking to the media, Nawaz said that his party believes in democracy and that today’s elections were also based on the democratic stance of the party. He added that PML-N works for a prosperous Pakistan and their motive is to bring Pakistan forward.

Sharif also said that it saddens him that an agreement between PML-N and PPP couldn’t be worked out when they wanted to. If that would have worked out, it would have helped in wiping out corruption, along with other problems, from Pakistan.

Talking about Karachi, he said that the people of Karachi were not happy with the current situation in the country. He further added that all the political parties present in Karachi owe an explanation to the Karachiites about what they are doing for Pakistan.

Commenting on the Hazara province, he said that PML-N is in favor of the formation of Hazara province, but would not approve dividing other provinces in the country, like Sindh for instance.
