PM Khan said that the Modi government wanted to win the election based on its politics of hatred against Pakistan. He said that the armed forces of the country are ever ready and would give a befitting response in case of any military aggression.
Khan added that good news regarding the oil and gas sector was expected in the next three weeks and if large reserves are discovered, the economic crisis in the country would be resolved to a great extent.
Speaking about the law and order situation in the country, PM Khan said that banned organisations should have been eliminated a long time ago, but it was his government which was taking action them.
