Government of PakistanKhaqan dismayed over non-adherence to Charter of Democracy

NEW JATOI, Pakistan: Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi on Saturday expressed his dismay over the non-adherence to the Charter of Democracy (CoD), and called for carrying forward the same commitment as only democracy could guarantee the stability of the economy, provision of jobs and justice.

While addressing a public gathering at Nawan Jatoi in Naushero Feroze, the prime minister said the Country could only achieve progress through democracy, and recalled that the CoD signed between former Prime Ministers Nawaz Sharif and late Benazir Bhutto had committed to bring an end to political victimization and respecting the public mandate.

Khaqan said only Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Nawaz Sharif ensured the integration of the Country as he was the one who proved his agenda of public welfare and development through his actions, not merely words. He recalled that it was always Nawaz Sharif-led government that enhanced the Country’s road network as currently motorways were being constructed across Sindh.

The prime minister said the federal government believed in granting due rights to the provinces as all of their issues were discussed and resolved in Council of Common Interests (CCI) leaving no province to complain about the distribution of resources.

Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said after 18th amendment, like other provinces, the resources for Sindh too had been doubled but unfortunately those were going to corruption showing the failure of the provincial government.

To the public demand of job opportunities, the prime minister said it was the issue across the Country but the federal government was toeing a policy of giving jobs to the rightful aspirants on merit, not by minting money. He assured the people that China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) would help create employment opportunities and stabilizing the national economy.

However, he reiterated that the issues would continue lingering on until the resources are duly utilized for public welfare, not the political interests.
