LAHORE: Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif says his party will support the government on the 20th Amendment if the accountability bill prepared with extensive consultation is passed by parliament.
He was talking to reporters at the residence of MPA Mehr Ishtiaq Ahmad here on Wednesday.
The chief minister said the provinces should be granted their rights under the 18th Amendment.
He said the federal government showed negligence on gas and electricity as he had also written a letter to the prime minister over this issue that would be raised at every forum.
PML-Q: The PML-Q has asked Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif to consume his energies on taking measures to save the lives of the people of Punjab from different diseases instead of making false claims about his party’s popularity.
“The PML-N has been reduced to a few cities according to the 2008 election and its popularity continues to be dwindled because of its policies that resulted in deaths and miseries,” PML-Q central information secretary Kamil Ali Agha said.
In a statement on Wednesday, he said Shahbaz Sharif was making false claims about the Senate election as according to the Election Commission of Pakistan’s last election results, the PML-N had been reduced to few cities of Punjab while the PML-Q had representation in all provinces including Gilgit-Baltistan.
Mr Agha further said the PML-N should have seen its popularity in Bahawalpur by-poll, where its candidate faced defeat at the hands of the ‘Q’ man. He said Shahbaz had strengthened its government in Punjab through the help of turncoats.
