SIALKOT: Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi said on Monday that the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), under its leader Nawaz Sharif, had always pursued the politics of decency with the sole objective of resolving people’s problems. Addressing a gathering of PML-N workers at the residence of Foreign Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif, the PM said that the people would ultimately decide about their future in the general election in 2018 and said he was very optimist that the PML-N would again sweep the next polls. He said following the July 28 SC verdict, the PML-N had taken a decision to appoint the next prime minister, without any problem. “Nawaz Sharif was and is still leader of the people and lives in their hearts,” he said. Prime Minister Abbasi said the decisions of politics need to be taken at polling stations and not at the courts, as such decisions were never long lasting. He regretted the kind of politics being pursued by the opponents and regretted that they resorted to abusive politics, full of contradictions and baseless allegations.
