Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif on Tuesday said corruption of ‘a group of
rulers’ was tarnishing the country’s name and that the nation was being
made to suffer as a result of ‘crimes committed by an individual’.
Addressing a meeting of office bearers and workers of Pakistan Muslim
League-Nawaz, Shahbaz Sharif warned that plunder and nepotism could
cause Pakistan an irreparable loss.
“The lust of an individual occupying the top most position has made the life of common people a hell,” he regretted.
He said the announcement of taking out a rally by the PML-N in Lahore
had breathed in a fresh spirit of political enlightenment among the
people.
The corruption being committed by the rulers have brought bad name to the country at international level also, he felt.
In a chat with media, senior PML-N leader Saaf Rafiq said the time given to the government to mend its ways, has expired.
Opposition Leader in the National Assembly Chaudhry Nisar and Senator Pervez Rasheed were also present on the occasion. SANA
