Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif — File Photo

LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif said on Sunday that if need be, a long march will take place against the drone strikes in Pakistan.

While speaking in Bhawalnagar, Sharif said that because of being in the habit of constantly begging for loans, the country has reached the brink of destruction. He said that hard work will be needed for Pakistan to be able to support itself without any help from anyone.

Sharif also said that the government will be setting up schools to help the poverty-stricken children who do not have any access to education in the country.
