Former interior minister Rana Sanaullah said on Monday that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif’s politics are vital for the country’s prosperity.
Expressing his thoughts in Lahore, Mr Sanaullah said: "Whenever the country is developing, some of the characters leave in desperation. If Nawaz Sharif was not ousted, the country would not have to face inflation".
"If there was no plot, the country was not compelled to beg. Those who harmed the country were distributing the certificates of honesty," he rued.
Speaking about welcoming former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, Mr Sanaullah said: "The nation will support the agenda of the country’s development by welcoming Nawaz Sharif on his return."
"Democracy was deliberately derailed. The conspiracy against Nawaz Sharif actually happens with the people of the country," Mr Sanaullah stated.
– Grand welcome –
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif on Saturday decided that former interior minister Rana Sanaullah will handle the affairs pertaining to his grand welcome.
PML-N Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz will monitor the mobilisation of the entire party.
The former premier had directed all the party leaders, who are currently present in London and other foreign countries, to return to the country within a week.
– Nawaz gets go-ahead –
PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif's legal team on Saturday gave him the greenlight to return to Pakistan.
The former prime minister presided over the key party meeting in London. On the occasion, former law minister Azam Nazeer Tarar and Amjad Pervaiz Malik briefed the meeting in line with the return of Nawaz Sharif to the country. The legal team had prepared a strategy in line with the former premier’s return.
Mr Tarar said on Saturday that the Supreme Court (SC) verdict in line with the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) amendments was not linked to the cases against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif.
Tarar asserted: "The verdict over the NAB amendments has nothing to do with the return of Nawaz Sharif."
Mr Tarar underscored the importance of uplifting democracy, saying, "There is a dire need to hold simultaneous elections in the country to see the stabilisation of the democratic process in the country".
On the other side, Amjad Pervaiz Malik said, "The acquittal of PML-N Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz in the Avenfield case was merely based on pure merit."
"The SC verdict will not have an impact on the cases against Nawaz Sharif," said Mr Malik.
