Talagang: Former Minister Dr Babar Awan has said that no other
country could take advantage of Pakistan’s peace desire. Those who
think that they would swallow the country like chocolate are living in
fool’s paradise.
He was speaking to the inaugural ceremony of
the lawyers’ chambers at the newly built Judicial Complex at Talagang
on Saturday. He said that although Pakistan is a peace-loving nation.
Despite being nuclear power she never had aggressive designs against
any country but if someone tries harm this country a befitting reply
will be given.
He said that it is the matter of great concern
that USA, proud of its democratic traditions, has double standards
while dealing with India and Pakistan. He said that the responsibility
of USA’s failure in Afghanistan is being shifted to Pakistan.
“We
would fight only to protect our boundaries instead of proxy war on
behalf of other countries”, the senior leader of PPP said.
He
said that Balochistan was overlooked in the past but for the first time
in the history PPP government gave the province its due rights. The
government presented highest ever budget of Rs 84 billion for the
development of Balochistan. Whenever the democracy begin to flourish in
the country, anti democratic elements begin the propaganda of failed
state against the country.
Babar Awan was of the view that PPP
has prevented the ways for dictators. After passing 18th and 19th
amendments, the tyrants would have not any kind of legal protection for
them in future. It was the PPP that made accountable army and
intelligence agencies in front of parliament .Peoples Party also
restored 1973 constitution in its original shape and made the
parliament supreme.
He said that those who wanted a failed APC
have been frustrated. PPP would continue its policy of reconcillation
by taking all partiers on board as the era of solo flight is over. Online
