Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader and former minister Ahsan Iqbal has said that the party will make Pakistan a peaceful country again.

Addressing a press conference in Model Town on Wednesday, he said Nawaz Sharif is due back on Oct 21. “He became premier in 2013 when the country was in turmoil; lawlessness was at its peak and foreign investors had left,” he added.

The PML-N had ended inflation, load shedding and unemployment till 2017. Nawaz was disqualified under a conspiracy and the country had to pay a heavy price of this act, Ahsan continued.

The former minister said a person who did not run the affairs of a union council, was put at the helm of affairs of the country. “We warned when the PTI chief was signing agreement with the IMF that he was putting the poor and future at stake. We cautioned that the agreement would cause worst inflation in the country,” he stated.

The senior party leader went on to say that it is up to all stakeholders to ensure that they operate within their constitutional parameters, adding that all state institutions are an asset of Pakistan.

He said the country was facing consequences of the agreement signed by the PTI chief.

In 2024, the PML-N would return to power, he boasted and claimed that it would rid the masses of inflation. “A new era will begin in 2024.”

Ahsan said Nawaz is a well-known figure all over the world and “we will succeed in getting cooperation from friendly countries. I believe, under the leadership of Nawaz Sharif, we will succeed in restoring economy of the country,” he concluded.
