PESHAWAR: The Federal Minister for Communications Dr. Arbab Alamgir
Khan Khalil has said that we will never resort to undemocratic and cheap
language while criticizing our political opponents because we are
concentrating all our energies and attention to the service of the
people, progress and prosperity of the country and survival of
democracy.
He expressed these views while talking to media
persons here at the Media Cell NHA Peshawar. He advised the PPP
opponents not to malign politics by such tactics because in our view,
politics is a sacred duty. Earlier, the Federal Minister remained busy
all day long at his constituency, helping out people with the
applications regarding different government departments.
The
Minister even went from door to door to his voters and made instant
efforts to redress their grievances. His residence remained packed with
people throughout the day. Dr. Arbab Alamgir Khan, while talking to
the media, said that anti-democracy forces are again trying to derail
democracy and impose dictatorship on the country but the nation, this
time, is well aware of their intentions and will not let them succeed
because the nation has witnessed the current democracy after a long
struggle and the supreme sacrifice of Shaheed Benazir Bhutto.
The
Minister said that using foul language against the leadership of PPP
will not harm us but will rather impair the credibility of our opponents
because such extreme terminology is against political and democratic
norms.
He said that such unhealthy criticism is easy but serving
the people in earnest is a difficult task, hence our opponents have
resorted to such a sordid approach. Dr. Arbab Alamgir Khan Khalil
recollected that when the PPP came into power in 2008, it had to start
from scratch in its bid to national reconstruction, and today, with the
Grace of Allah, we have been able to overcome most of the problems faced
by the country.
Arbab Alamgir Khan also clarified the
opposition that the PPP Government will complete its term of five years
in office and will sweep the next general elections as well because it
is the only political force with strong and deep roots in the masses.The
Minister also said that the name Bhutto will remain alive in the
country for all times to come. Online
