Countrys development halted since long: Nawaz

PML-N Patron Nawaz Sharif has said that the process of uplift has been halted for the last many decades. During a press briefing at Punjab Assembly Speaker Rana Iqbal at his residence in Lahore on Thursday, Nawaz said that the country has not seen any uplift since Ghulam Ishaq suspended the assemblies. He blamed the army generals for all the maladies facing the country, saying that none has ever thought of countrys development and welfare. He claimed that, there was no poverty and inflation in my tenure. Answering a question regarding the poisoning of a family by its own leader, Nawaz sympathized with the family and said that the family would have been alive had they been given the monetary help bit earlier. He urged the fake degrees holders belonging to his party to quit themselves thus saving both the party and their own faces. Replying to a question, he said that ties with India should be boosted for regional peace and stability, and added that Kashmir issue resolution is possible only through talks.
