MANSEHRA: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz central vice president and former federal minister Sardar Mohammad Yusuf said here on Saturday that his party was united under the leadership of Mian Nawaz Sharif.

“I have never developed any differences with my party and its leadership and not going to launch any political party in the country,” he told journalists.

Mr Yusuf said that an organised propaganda was being disseminated against him and that he was going to launch a political party in the name of ‘Hazara Democratic Party’ which was totally rubbish and had no ground.

“I vehemently refute and denounce such propaganda against me and my party, PML-N. The people behind such drive would be taken to the court of law if they continue to proceed ahead in the same manner,” he added.

The former federal minister said that no meeting of political personalities as being propagated by the anti-PML-N elements was held elsewhere in the federal capital.

He said the former premier Mian Nawaz Sharif had made Pakistan the seventh atomic power in the world and launched mega development projects in Hazara division.

“Mr Sharif would return from England soon and would lead PML-N to steer the country out of the economic and political crises,” said Mr Yusuf.

He said that until the former premier was abroad his daughter Marium Nawaz was leading PML-N, he and other leaders of the party would have full confidence in her leadership.

Sardar Shahjehan Yusuf, adviser to prime minister and son of Mr Yusuf, also refuted vehemently the news that his father was going to launch a political party in the country.
