LAHORE: PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif unveiled his party’s much-awaited election manifesto on Saturday, with the upcoming February 8 polls less than two weeks away.
The party launched its manifesto with the slogan ‘Pakistan Ko Nawaz Do’.
Addressing the media after manifesto’s launch, Nawaz Sharif said his party will ensure the implementation of the manifesto, highlighting that the country’s biggest problem is its state of economy.
Nawaz Sharif said that the PML-N’s manifesto has been prepared with “great efforts” and would be “fully implemented” if voted to power.
Nawaz termed the country’s economy as the most important aspect of the manifesto.
The PML-N manifesto outlined both long-term and short-term plans aimed at providing relief to the public through measures like checking inflation, reducing electricity bills and ensuring the completion of projects associated with the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC).
Initiating the launch of the manifesto, the party’s Manifesto Committee Chairman Senator Irfan Siddiqui said there is nothing in the manifesto that the PML-N will not be able to do when it comes to power. He said the delay in the announcement of the manifesto came as the party was focusing on reforms during the preparation.
Party’s President Shehbaz Sharif, who was also present at the launch alongside senior leadership, said a special body will be established to ensure the effective implementation of the manifesto.
He said “People must see which political party fulfilled promises made in its manifesto. Everyone presents the manifesto, but some act upon it”.
