LAHORE: PML-N leader Khwaja Saad Rafiq warns that the state institutions will collapse if the country’s system is not reformed.
Speaking at an election meeting here on Sunday, the former federal minister said that if the national governance system was not reformed, the state institutions would collapse and it’s responsibility of the new government and institutions to bring all the political players on a single platform post Feb 8 elections for devising a joint road map for the country.
He said only those elements should be allowed to run the country who knew how to govern a state and avoiding the past precedents when an elected prime minister was ousted through judiciary under a conspiracy to put the national development into reverse gear.
He said lawlessness and unemployment could not be accepted as the future of the country. He said had the Nawaz Sharif government been not ousted from power in 2017, there would have been three more metro services in Lahore.
Referring to PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s anti-PML-N statements, Khwaja Saad said the young man had forgotten friendship of the recent past when he (Bilawal) would say that he had learnt a lot from Shehbaz Sharif.
In a reference to PTI founder Imran Khan, the PML-N leader said that the poor masses could not be misled by the ‘political fraudster’ but the affluent class fell victim to his deception and voted for him.
He said Imran would threaten everyone to put behind bars but he himself was afraid of serving his time in jail.
He regretted that the PTI leader imprisoned his rivals without ever producing any evidence of wrongdoing against them.
Former AJK prime minister Raja Farooq Haider urged the people to come out of their homes on Feb 8 and vote for the PML-N.
