Asif Ali Zardari on Monday said the government was committed to
safeguard life and property of the citizens at every cost as it was the
prime responsibility of every democratic government. He said the

with its efforts to take along all political forces with it on all
major decisions. He reiterated the government’s resolve to restore
peace, law and order and to bring the culprits to book regardless of
