Caretaker Chief Minister of NWFP Shams-ul-Mulk said on Tuesday that the government had provided level playing field to all political parties and individuals, contesting the February 18 general elections, saying that arrangements for the polls were up to the mark.
Addressing the inaugural ceremony of the building of sub-division/tehsil headquarters at Pabbi, district Nowshera, he categorically stated that there would be no rigging and no political support for any political party by the provincial government.
He said the government was working on a multi-dimensional plan to restore peace, one of the pre-requisites for credible and transparent polls. He called upon the people to get together for winning durable peace in their areas. "Peace is very much essential part of life. Peace is a key to any thing and particularly it is more needed for developmental activities," he added.
He said that the government needed peoples help for better law and order situation in the province. The chief minister said that the society and the elders must find a leading role for themselves to maintain peace in their areas, adding that every one was the end beneficiary of peace.
He said that if the government constructed a road and the people could not use it for fear and if the government established schools and the people could not send their kids for schooling because of fear, then it would be of no benefit and resultantly everything would be good for nothing.
He said that worsening law and order situation in any area would harm every one, but it affected the man on the street, especially the poor, he added. He said that within a short span of time, the government did everything on merit and tried to mitigate the suffering of those, who needed the help of the government.
