Political stability key to economic strength, devilment, prosperity: PM Shahbaz Sharif
Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif on Wednesday said that political stability in the country was highly important to achieve the economic strength, attract investment, and ensure development and prosperity.
“Until there is no political stability, there would not be any economic stability as both are inter-linked with each other,” he said while addressing the inaugural ceremony of the reconstructed Captain Karnal Sher Khan Shaheed Road (previously known as IJ Principal Road) here.
Shahbaz Sharif said in a situation where there was political instability in the country, the political opponents were hatching conspiracies everywhere, spreading false propaganda and misleading the nation, nobody would be ready to invest from outside as well as from inside the country.
Putting the responsibility of current economic crisis in the country on the previous government, the prime minister said it breached its own agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) due to which the confidence of the Fund on Pakistan shattered and it was hesitant to resume its agreement now.
He said the current government had met all the conditions of the IMF and hoped that the programme would resume anytime very soon.
