MANDI BAHAUDDIN: Punjab Minister for Prisons and Industries Chaudhry Abdul Ghafoor has criticised the government for seeking financial help from the international institutions.
He was addressing a gathering at Dera Awanan here on Tuesday evening. The minister asked President Asif Ali Zardari not to sell national dignity in exchange for few dollars. “The federal government is creating crisis to deceive the masses and mint money on one or another pretext,” he said. He added that foreign powers wanted to destabilise Pakistan by showing the presence of terrorists in Southern Punjab.
He was of the view that Israel, India and their allies wanted to seize country’s nuclear programme while the rulers were promoting ties with these countries. “Time has come to teach a lesson to Israel as it violated international rules by attacking Palestine-bound aid flotilla,” he maintained. PML-N district president Dewan Mushtaq Ahmad, secretary Sikandar Hayat Gondal, city president Haji Usman Ahmad, former MNA Mumtaz Ahmad Tarar, former tehsil nazim Imtiaz Ahmad Chaudhry, Tahir Awan and Asifullah Awan were also present. Meanwhile, hundreds of people belonging to the Awan family joined the PML-N.
CONDOLENCE: President Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani have expressed their grief over the sad demise of Haman Shamim, son of PPP district president Dewan Shamim Akhtar, on Wednesday. Meanwhile, PPP Punjab president Samiullah Khan visited the Dewan House and offered his condolence over the death son of Dewan Shamim Akhtar.
