LAHORE: The President of PML(N) Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif has said
that if deemed necessary, he would not avoid even long march from
Karachi to Islamabad to ensure the rights of deprived people forcibly .
He was speaking to the inaugural ceremony of 500 newly
constructed houses under Ashiyana Housing Project of Punjab Government.
He said if the state could provide houses to the rich people, then what
is the fault of poor who works day and night to get the loaf of bread
for his children , why he can not get his own house. Rich and poor have
equal right on Pakistan.
He said that nation is divided into
two class . The majority are poor who work on the roads and in the
gutters in scorching heat of June and July. But he is not even entitled
for three marla land for his house.
“When I was Prime Minister
I laid foundation stone of 0.5 million houses for the poor but when
Musharraf came to power , no one knew about these houses. If I will get
another opportunity , I promise that every citizen of the country would
have its own house”, former PM added. Online
