PML-N leader Azma Bokhari has congratulated PM-elect Shehbaz Sharif, saying that the era of progress and prosperity would continue again under his leadership, APP reports.

Extending her felicitation to the incoming premier, she outlined how Shehbaz deserved the credit for saving Pakistan from a default.

“Shehbaz would steer Pakistan out of the economic vortex and vicious circle as his first and foremost priority is to ensure the revival of the national economy and elimination of the price hike,” she said.

“Those who are destined to wail will continue to do so for the next five years. The PML-N government under the dynamic leadership of Nawaz Sharif will work with the same spirit of rendering public service in the federation and Punjab as well.”
