Sharifs’ pre-poll promises to AJK don’t sit well with PPP
But the pre-poll promises, and an apparent jibe at PPP chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, was not received well by the PML-N’s coalition partner, whose leaders hit back at the elder Sharif, terming his remarks ‘frivolous’ and ‘ridiculous’. Addressing a large public meeting in the lakeside city of Mirpur, the father-daughter duo repeatedly highlighted their Kashmiri roots and told supporters that AJK needed the same infrastructure and welfare-focused governance that had been introduced in Punjab. Describing Kashmir as his “first home”, Mr Sharif said he shared a deep emotional bond with the region.
