PPP not responsible for chaos: Nawaz

LAHORE, Oct 24: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) patron Nawaz Sharif on Friday absolved the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) of the prevailing chaos in the country and said it was all result of the Musharraf era policies.

“The PPP is not responsible for the present mayhem in the country, as it assumed power just six months ago and is trying to overcome the problems left by the last government,” Sharif told a group of handpicked reporters at his Raiwind farmhouse.

He said he did not want to destabilise the system and would remain a supporter of it. About the Fata militancy issue, he said the government should implement recommendations of the parliamentary committee and hold talks with the tribal people instead of using force.
