providing equal opportunities while bridging the gap between the poor and the rich, he emphasized. The economy will touch new heights in 2021. The journey of the development will be accelerated in 2021 and the struggle for a new Pakistan will be
continued under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan, he stressed. Regrettably, the opposition tried to impede the wheel of development in 2020 but the people have totally rejected the negative politics of the PDM and it is better that the PDM
should think for the country in 2021 by setting aside the politics of chaos and anarchy, the CM concluded.
