Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar has said that the opposition may fulfill their desire of holding protests, but rooting out corruption is necessary to strengthen the country economically.
There should be no compromise on accountability without discrimination, he added. He was talking to media on Sunday at a ceremony held in Gaddafi Stadium with members of the business community Syed Azmat Ali Shah and Malik Amjad.
Responding to questions, the Punjab governor said that the victim of Motorway incident is the daughter of the nation and the Punjab government will utilise all resources to deliver justice to the victim.
He said that exemplary punishment will be given to the culprits involved in this crime.
The Punjab governor, answering another question, said that ever since the PTI government has assumed power, the opposition is saying that we will not complete our term but the opposition will only have to face disappointment as we have public support with us.
He said that the opposition parties cannot influence the process of transparent accountability with threats of protests and sit-ins.
Our government fully supports accountability and there shall be no compromise on this at any cost.
The Punjab governor said that the opposition may protest if they want to but Prime Minister Imran Khan will complete five-year mandate given by the public.
General elections will take place on time and our government will continue to move forward with successful economic policies which are being validated by the international organizations, he added.
Addressing the ceremony Governor Punjab said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan, our government has saved Pakistan from economic bankruptcy.
Pakistan’s economy has suffered due to Coronavirus but our government has supported millions of distressed families through Ehsaas Programme.
He said that the world is praising the smart lockdown policy of Prime Minister Imran Khan and the countries of the world are replicating our policy to control the spread of Coronavirus. Pakistan’s global image is improving and we are making progress on every front, he added.
