The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) geared up to welcome its supremo and former prime minister, Nawaz Sharif, to the country on October 21.
Addressing the party workers in Rawalpindi on Monday, PML-N leader Chaudhry Tanvir rued, ‘’Whenever the country leads to prosperity, it is harmed.’’ Recalling Nawaz Sharif’s ouster, he said, ‘’Nawaz Sharif was disqualified for not taking salary from the son.’’
He recounted the events that transpired on May 9, saying, ‘’The nation demands the accountability of those who attacked the military installations. We could sacrifice our lives for the sake of the country’s defence.
‘’The PML-N workers love Nawaz Sharif. We want to see the same situation in the country as it was in 2017.'' Chaudhry Tanvir added.

Addressing a press conference in Lahore, Sanaullah lashed out at the political opponents, saying, ‘‘The country would not have been dragged into the quagmire if the politicians were not subjected to the political vendetta during the tenure of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).’’
‘’Even if we keep nabbing people, it will be a big injustice to the country. Those who had subjected us to the political vendetta, we did not forget them,’’ he added.
Speaking about the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), the former interior minister said: ‘’This is not a big deal that the PPP is making statements against the PML-N to garner votes.’’
– Premier for fourth time –
Last week, PML-N stalwart Mohammad Zubair said on Thursday that the party workers wanted to see Nawaz Sharif as the country’s premier for the fourth time.
Addressing a press conference in Karachi, Mr Zubair made it clear that the PML-N supremo’s return to the country was on October 21.
He said, “The journey of development in the country that ended in 2017 will be restarted again”.
“Nawaz Sharif, who was voted to power as the country’s premier three times, was ousted,” Mr Zubair rued.
He took a jibe at the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), saying, “The PPP-led government had a flop show in Sindh. We will contest against the PPP with great verve.”
Taking a swipe at the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief, he said, “It was harmful for the country to see the PTI chief intact as the prime minister.”
