ISLAMABAD: All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) Quaid Pervez Musharraf
has said Pakistan is desperately in need of a democratic government
that have support both from military and bureaucracy.
Addressing
the inaugural ceremony of APML office in Texas (USA), the APML Quaid in
his inaugural address underscored that both PPP and PML-N has lost
supporting hands from military and bureaucracy.
He said that
when he assumed power in 1999; the country was on the verge of
bankruptcy but with day-in and day-out struggle of few years, Pakistan
was enlisted among the 11 countries’ list with the fastest growth and
progress ratio.
In 2006, Pakistan refused to take foreign aid
from IMF, Musharraf said, adding that the masses in the country should
judge his regime with the developmental works and social welfare works
initiated under his government instead of the individual acts like ‘Lal
Masjid’ and Bughti’s killing.
Pervez Musharraf said that his
popularity graph in Pakistan has been mounting due to incapability of
the ruling leaders and its’ the high-time that people of Pakistan
should sideline themselves from hierarchical politics of PML-N and PPP
by bringing forth a third political force as the absence of third
political option in the country could create harms regarding future of
Pakistan.
Both the leading institutions of the country
including military and bureaucracy were not supporting PPP as well as
PML-N due to incompetent and incapable leadership of these parties,
Musharraf said.
Next General elections in the country will
prove mother of all the elections and the ruling government of the
country has been fabricating cases against him to avert his arrival in
the country but soon, ‘I will among my countrymen,’ APML Quaid said.
Talking
about future of Pak-US relation, Musharraf said, “America should stop
this sort of thinking that Pakistan is solely dependent on US funding
and US should realize the fact that both the countries are
inter-dependent on each other’s due to their bilateral interest”.
Musharraf
said that any sort of misunderstanding regarding Pak-US relations would
be very concerning for the region and he will personally endeavor to
sort out these misgivings to strengthen Pak-US relations and mutual
trust in future.
Friendly and good relation with India are also
in the interest of Pakistan as both the neighboring countries couldn’t
afford confrontation at their borders for a longer time adding that
both the Indian premiers including Vajpayee and Manmohan Singh wanted
peaceful solution of all long standing disputes with Pakistan including
Kashmir.
Expressing his concerns over deteriorating peace
situation in Kashmir, APML Quaid Pervez Musharraf said that as in 990,
peace situation of Karachi was intentionally spoiled in the same style
the same sort of story was being repeated again. Online
