KOTLI: Federal Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid said on Monday the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) would rid the people of Azad Jammu and Kashmir of usurpers as well as corrupt and incompetent rulers. Addressing PML-N Workers Convention here, Rashid said that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was striving for reconciliation between Saudi Arabia and Iran and he would also work to end the sufferings of the Kashmiri people. He said that Iran was Pakistan’s neighbour and Saudi Arabia was held in high esteem by the entire Muslim world. He said the entire world was now acknowledging the leadership of Nawaz Sharif who was playing a vital role in resolution of disputes among Muslim countries. The minister said that Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif fully supported the proposal at the Council of Common Interests (CCI) to giving extra water to Azad Kashmir, but Sindh Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah opposed this proposal. Rashid, who is also a member of the Senate, said that the people of Azad Jammu and Kashmir had rejected the corrupt and incompetent government of Prime Minister Chaudhry Abdul Majeed. He said that defeat of Majeed’s party in the next election was writing on the wall. The minister said that a series of workers conventions was being held in Azad Kashmir — Bhimber, Mirpur, Kotli and finally in Muzaffarabad. He said that Bhimber workers convention was bigger than other political parties’ public rallies, Mirpur convention was bigger than all public rallies held there until now and the Kotli workers conventions was a historic one. He said that tigers of Nawaz Sharif would reach Muzaffarabad soon and time had come for the AJK prime minister to pack up and shift somewhere else. He said that Majeed was elected the prime minister and he was supposed to serve the people of Kashmir, but he would spend most of his time in Islamabad. He said that PML-N leaders received unprecedented response from the AJK people wherever they went with Nawaz Sharif’s message during the 2011 election campaign. He said the PML-N accepted the election results despite reservations. He said the Majeed government had miserably failed to deliver. The minister said the government of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) failed to deliver at the federal level as well as in Kashmir. He said that Nawaz Sharif selflessly worked for the betterment of the country and transformed it within two and a half years. If voted to power in the next election, he said, the PML-N would change the fate of the people of Kashmir. Rashid said that now the world was willing to invest in Pakistan. He said that China had decided to invest $ 46 billion a number of projects in Pakistan. He said that top PML-N leadership advised its AJK leaders to distance themselves from the no-trust motion against the AJK prime minister. He said the PML-N wanted the PPP government in Muzaffarabad to complete its tenure and it would not interfere in their matters of governance.
