We have fought war for the protection of rights of people. We have shown performance and only we can think about the bright future of Seraiki people. We will not allow a few feudalists and lords to be imposed on the people. We are not opposed to Seraiki province but we cannot leave the people of this area at the mercy of feudalists. The elements chanting attractive slogan of Seraiki province should also tell the people about the performance of their three and half year government”, he underlined.
Responding to a question he said government had failed and due to disunity in the ranks of opposition government is playing better cards despite being a failed government.
