Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif — File Photo

CHINIOT: Chief Minister Punjab Mian Shahbaz Sharif said on Thursday that a few mistakes have been made by the Pakistan army and certain generals need to be held accountable, DawnNews reported.

During an address in Chiniot, Shahbaz Sharif said that he respects the armed forces but elements who are trying to disgrace the army at the behest of others must be held accountable.

Sharif said that the elite class of Pakistan has divided the country into two parts but now was not the time for such divisions. He said that after 63 years, the time has come for the country to decide upon what kind of a future they want.
