Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif held a dinner reception as part of a campaign for Asif Ali Zardari for the presidential poll last night.

He invited the PTI to collaborate with the government and stated that the Centre would fully cooperate with the PTI-led Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government.

Speaking on the occasion, Zardari mentioned that although big challenges were confronting the government, they could be overcome through dedication and collective efforts.

“Our mills have the capacity to produce adequate grains to meet our needs,” he added.

Zardari assured the prime minister of his and his party’s full support in facing the challenges together. “We will take Pakistan to a place where we can proudly call it our nation,” he added.
