Sharifs bask in Sialkot's unwavering support, promise bright future to youth

Three-time prime minister Nawaz Sharif on Sunday promised skill development and provision of loans for the youth, wondering who says the youngsters do not support the PML-N.

Addressing a rally in Sialkot, Nawaz said the removal of his governments had pushed the country back and mentioned the unprecedented inflation rate, which have crushed the low-income groups.

Question those who destroyed the country through their decisions and actions, he said, adding that the excesses committed against the masses could not be forgotten.

He described Khawaja Asif as the most faithful friend, saying the relationship goes back to 55 years, as he also mentioned other close associates – including Rana Shamim, late Zahray Shah, Manshaullah Butt and Armaghan Subhani – with whom the friendship started before 1985.

Nawaz said the PML-N would reconstruct the Sialkot-Lahore Motorway because it wasn’t constructed according the desired standards and connect the two cities through a railway line.

In her address, Maryam Nawaz said the Sharif family was thankful to Sialkot – at the leaders and people levels – for their steadfastness and loyalty.

She asked the young men and women to use their ballot sensibly, saying the person giving petrol bombs could not be sincere to them.

PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif said the massive crowd was a proof that the sunrise on Feb 8 would belong to the PML-N, propelling Nawaz to the prime minister office for fourth term.

“Some political rivals are saying that the PML-N and Nawaz are not holding rallies. Is this mammoth rally being held in a room?” he remarked and promised that the opponents would be swept away on Feb 8.

“People would show a yellow [red] card to the rival and remove him from the ground on Feb 8,” he said about PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari without naming him.

Shehbaz listed the past achievements of Nawaz during the three shortened terms, including the offers made to him by the then US president Bill Clinton to stop him from going for nuclear tests.

The youth were looking towards Nawaz so that he would generate employment opportunities for them, he said, as he cited the plans about provision of laptops and human resource development besides promising a state-of-the-art IT university for Sialkot.

He saluted Khawaja Asif for standing Nawaz through thick and thin, and asked the people to stamp the tiger on Feb 8 so that the journey towards progress and prosperity could start again.

Earlier, Khawaja Asif in his address reminded Nawaz that the PML-N supremo had brought into politics in 1990 and the relationship would continue in the future too even after the passage of over three decades.

The bond with Nawaz had also served him and his family during good and bad times, said Khawaja Asif, adding that the people had got him elected as MNA six times from Sialkot which remain faithful to Nawaz forever.

Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has issued directives to implement concrete measures for the digitalization of land records across the province.

Presided over a crucial session focused on Board of Revenue reforms, CM Nawaz received a comprehensive briefing on the Punjab Urban Land Systems Enhancement (PULSE) project.

During the session, officials from the Punjab Land Record Authority and Management of State Land provided insights into the project’s business plan and execution strategies.

The digitalization of land records under the PULSE project is being undertaken with the support of the World Bank.

This ambitious initiative aims to digitize all land records in Punjab on an owner-based system, marking a significant step towards transparency and efficiency in revenue management.

Key highlights from the briefing include the categorization of land properties into clear, and disputed categories, denoted by green, yellow, and red respectively.

Each buyer will be assigned a unique property number, streamlining legal processes and reducing complications associated with property transactions.

The implementation of a transparent partition of land and parcel document system will enhance the transparency and fairness of revenue management.

The digitalization process will also simplify the Record of Rights (Fard) and property transfer system, ensuring accessibility and efficiency for citizens.

In a move to facilitate overseas Pakistanis, the government plans to introduce services such as overseas property transfer, mutation, registration, and e-survey.

CM Maryam Nawaz has underscored the importance of swift action and collaboration among relevant departments to expedite the digitalization of land records.

Provincial Information Minister Azma Bukhari, MPA Sania Ashiq, chief secretary, P&D chairman, SMU head and other officials attended the session.
