Hands of Constitution violators should be broken: Nawaz

BAGH: Pakistan Muslim League-N Chief Nawaz Sharif during a public meeting in connection with the election campaign in Azad Kashmir on Wednesday said hands of those who violate the Constitution should be broken, Geo News reported.

Nawaz Sharif said Atal Bihari Vajpayee, the then prime minister of India, had assured him that the Kashmir issue would be resolved by the year 1999 but Musharraf embarked on the Kargil war and brought a bad name to Pakistan.

“I had to sacrifice power to protect the army,” he asserted, and stressed that Musharraf should be asked as to why he brought shame on Pakistan.

The PML-N Chief claimed that when he shook hands with someone then the bond remains forever. “I have shaken hands with the people and I will never let them down,” he promised.

He said his relationship of love with the people goes back a long a way and ‘I can never forget the people of Kashmir’.

Nawaz Sharif said he harbored no grudge against anyone and I just want that when a party comes forward with a mandate it must be respected.

He said when India had conducted nuclear tests, the Indians assumed a threatening tone in terms of Kashmir.

“We responded to the five Indian nuclear tests with six and brought the other side to the table,” Nawaz Sharif maintained.
