National interest

When any leader reaches at the highest podium of the country, he has to be free; it is the demand of history. He presents himself for all checks and balances, critiques and remains independent from his family, friends, party and other affiliations. Balance of power, good governance and delivering for national interest is only possible, when you are free from all chains. No one has achieved this great honor, i.e. to be appointed on the glorious portfolio of prime minister for the third time. It is also a test of the one whom God has conferred this title. Nature also desires that he should demonstrate an attitude befitting this glorious portfolio.
Pakistan is a great country. It is a beautiful but difficult experiment of the Muslims of the Subcontinent. Jealous people and enemies have always wished that this experiment should never be successful. There have also been such people in the country that were against the establishment of Pakistan. When it came into being against their efforts, conspiracies and desires, they started conspiracies to subject it to anarchy.
Now this great country of Pakistan is on such a decisive point where our existence rests only in the uprooting these conspiracies. Now is not the time for any expediency or deferment. The ruling political party besides all other the political parties, religious leaders, intellectuals, teachers, students and social organizations should understand why our enemy has enhanced pressure on Pakistan, and why the country that dreams of becoming a large economy of the world is facing threats from Pakistan. We will see our status on the global horizon as a powerful party, and give a befitting response to the propaganda of our enemy. This is only possible when we strengthen and stabilize the country.
