without naming any party currently working on forming a ‘grand alliance’ against his government prime minister nawaz sharif on friday said all political parties should act maturely and let him work in peace during his tenure.
the prime minister was addressing a ceremony in islamabad in connection with his laptop scheme.
“there are certain elements working against the country and our younger generation who wants to change things for pakistan” he said adding that the nation voted for the pakistan muslim league-nawaz (pml-n) in last year’s election because of its poll agenda.
he lashed out at opposition parties for staging dharnas (sit-ins) and protests and planning to disrupt the system.
the premier told the students and others present at the gathering that his government has been working on the election promises from the very first day and has not deviated from the mission even an inch.
“i campaigned for the youth before election and we have introduced schemes for them such as loan disbursement fee reimbursement and laptop allocation” he said highlighting that his government was the only one which trusted the younger generation with nation’s wealth despite strong criticism.
“we have already received the first instalment from the loan recipients” he boasted to which the crowd cheered. he then added that: “our youth has skills education and passion but what they don’t have is enough resources and funds; we have given them the opportunity to prove themselves and take the country forward.”
according to the data provided by the prime minister during the event around 12000 people have been given loan so far. he said his government will make sure more deserving people are brought under the scheme and that he trusts the youth to return every penny back to the state.
commenting on the neutrality of his youth-related programmes the premier said political affiliations have no influence on who benefits from these schemes. “i’m the prime minister of everyone; those who voted for me and those who didn’t” he said.
he questioned his rivals whether the steps his government has taken up till now are worth praising or not. “are we not working in the right direction? are these schemes not good initiatives?” he asked adding that he plans to overcome all the major problems faced by pakistan in the next three years.
“we will bridge the demand-and-supply gap in our energy sector we will ensure our economy keeps progressing we will develop gwadar port in accordance with the international standards we will build a road network from north to south we will end lawlessness” the premier said listing his plans for the country.
