The Special Assistant of the Prime Minister of Public and Political Affairs Rana Sanaullah said that the protest call from Pakistan Tehreek-E-insaf would not bear fruit because the party is unable to direct such a movement at the moment.
Addressing the media after having offered the prayers of Eid Al-Adha in Fairebad, the SAPM declared that Pakistan was now on the path of economic stability and development, but overcoming existing challenges requires national unity, political consensus and alignment with an economic agenda, which it called the most urgent time.
He said Pakistan goes from economic decline to economic stability – a dream from the country’s founding fathers.
He added that thanks to national unity and courageous decisions of the political leadership, Pakistan is again on a development path.
He revealed that India had made an unfair and arrogant attempt to attack Pakistan last month, but the armed forces, with the support of the people, delivered a strong answer and broke the arrogance of the enemy.
He said that the ongoing military operation, “Bunyan-Un-Marsoos”, carried out on behalf of justice, has reached historical success and Pakistan appeared before the world as a strong nuclear power.

He made congratulations to Marshal General Asim Munnir and all the soldiers involved, saying that they all deserve the recognition of this success.
Sanaullah said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Pakistan entered the path of economic growth.
He once again called PTI and all political parties to meet for the improvement of the country and to agree on the Charter of the Economy, just as the whole nation had shown unity and consensus between May 6 and 10.
He pointed out that policy can wait – what is most important is to repair the economy, especially since 240 million Pakistani is struggling with inflation and economic pressures.
He called on the opposition leaders to accept the Prime Minister’s invitation and to agree on the formation of a neutral electoral commission so that the next general elections are free and equitable, leaving no room for the objection.
The advisor said that Pakistan had won respect and recognition worldwide – countries that have moved away from themselves are now forced to listen.
He warned that if political leaders continue to prioritize personal or group interests, this will go against national interest. He urged the public to put pressure on political parties to put the nation first.
Commenting on the PTI protest movement, Rana Sanaullah said that the movement was ineffective because the party lacks both preparation and public support.
He also criticized Imran Khan, saying that if the former Prime Minister attaches his release to the country’s economic progress, it would be an injustice for the nation.
Speaking about the intentions of India, he answered a question saying that the Modi government follows the extremist agenda of the RSS and is hostile both in Pakistan and the Muslims.

He assured that India would no longer dare to attack, although efforts to destabilize Pakistan by terrorism would probably continue.
He added that if the soldiers have fulfilled his duties, he is now the responsibility of the political leadership to unite for national development.
He said that the Muslim League of Pakistan-Nawaz (PML-N) took the next local elections seriously and will actively participate under the new law on local authorities. He confirmed that these elections will be held on a party base.
Sanaullah also said that the Punjab government is working on social protection regimes such as the Kisan card, the Mazdoor card and the Mazoor card to improve the quality of life of ordinary citizens.
He concluded by noting that the main national projects, including the Pakistan nuclear tests, were completed during the mandate of PML-N, and that the chief minister Maryam Nawaz now clashes with a new vision of the public service.
