LAHORE: Railways Minister Khawaja Saad Rafique said on Sunday that record development projects had already been executed by the PML-N government and political opponents could not hamper the journey of progress and prosperity.

Addressing several corner meetings in his constituency NA-125 here, he said all local and national parties got an opportunity to rule the country in the past but these parties and dictatorships failed due to corruption and incapability.

He said more than 90 per cent schools of NA-125 were enjoying basic facilities, and massive construction work of streets and sewerage had been carried out in the constituency. “A network of parks has been established in the area and work on Bab-e-Pakistan will start in the current year,” he added.

The minister said 14-years of Musharraf and Zardari rule did push the country to 28 years back, adding Sindh had been facing troubles due for the last 10 years. He alleged negative politics; inability and bad governance of PTI chairman Imran and his team did damage Khyber Pakhtunkhawa.—NNI
