Lahore: Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Saturday said most of his government's time is consumed in tackling terrorism and the acute energy crisis which leaves little time for development works.
Expressing resolve to eliminate terrorism, Sharif said the military operation in North Waziristan that started in June last year will continue till the elimination of the last terrorist.
“Come what may the operation against terrorists will continue in the country till elimination of the last terrorist,“ he said.
Sharif also claimed that his government would overcome energy crisis in two to three years. “A country without gas and electricity cannot progress,“ he said. “I am working hard to curb terrorism and overcome energy crisis. I spend 90% of my time on these issues. And because of this, not much time is left to look into the other matters related to development works,“ Sharif said addressing businessmen in Sialkot.
Sharif: War on terror leaves no time for development
As a Prime Minister he needs to learn what multi-tasking is all about. He has an entire cabinet dealing with their proprietary issues. Like what has a minister for Planning and Development got to do with fighting terror? Isn't he responsible for development as his portfolio suggests?
So has the government come to a standstill? Can't development go on simultaneously with the WOT?
