ABBOTTABAD, Nov 20 (TNS):<\/strong> Ex-premier and PML-N president Nawaz Sharif, starting maiden public contact after Panama debacle said on Sunday that he has brought his review petition in the Panama Papers case to the people.<\/p>\n

“You have to decide my appeal. Give a decision that echoes far and wide.” He said while addressing a public gathering at the Abbottabad college ground which also indicates the dawn of pre-election campaign.<\/p>\n

Nawaz Sharif claimed that he is not meant to loose and his name represents an ideology that will bring about a revolutionary change in the country.<\/p>\n

Maintaining that he is not scared of jail or death, he told the crowd, “You have to promise, we will march together towards our destination. Don\u2019t sit at home, we will walk together and change Pakistan\u2019s destiny.”<\/p>\n

Referring to “those who talk about minus Nawaz Sharif,” the former premier said, “They don\u2019t know today that Nawaz is the name of an ideology. Not meant to be defeated, all of you are this ideology. This ideology will bring a revolutionary change in the country.”<\/p>\n

The disqualified prime minister then recalled what he termed the “Panama\u00a0Tamasha\u00a0<\/em>“, saying a petition which was dismissed earlier was later admitted and he and his family were dragged through the courts.<\/p>\n

He then referred to the “WhatsApp\u00a0Tamasha<\/em>“, “from which rare diamonds were sought and a JIT made in front of which we all were summoned.”<\/p>\n

Nawaz said one day the JIT\u2019s story will be uncovered before the world, adding that they toured the world but didn\u2019t find any iota of corruption against him.<\/p>\n

“And when all failed, they said you didn\u2019t take a salary from your son, so you are disqualified,” he asserted.<\/p>\n

However, he said he didn\u2019t delay implementing the Supreme Court order. Addressing the crowd, Nawaz asked if four or five people can overturn the decision of 200 million people? “You will have to support Nawaz Sharif,” he stated, claiming that the people of Pakistan are his courts.<\/p>\n

Concluding his speech, the PML-N chief said, “God willing, Nawaz Sharif will come to you for the 2018 elections. Will make new promises then as you know I always keep my word.”<\/p>\n

He added that Pakistan\u2019s destiny is democratic and you the people have to set free the sanctity of vote.<\/p>\n

Recalling his GT Road Rally following his disqualification, Nawaz said that too was a referendum by the people.<\/p>\n

Referring to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-led Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government, he said instead of ending corruption in 90 days like they promised in the elections, they\u2019ve increased corruption.<\/p>\n

“You didn\u2019t produce a single kilowatt of electricity,” alleged the PML-N chief. “They said we\u2019ll plant a billion trees but instead they syphoned of a billion rupees. You will have to pay. Shame on you for blaming others,” he stated.<\/p>\n

After starting his speech, Nawaz said he is remembering 2013 today as he sees the same passion in the people of Abbottabad.<\/p>\n

Several party leaders and allies were alongside the former premier on the stage and addressed the crowd before Nawaz.<\/p>\n

Sharif, who was in Lahore, reached Islamabad earlier on Sunday from where he departed for Murree. He briefly rested at his house in Murree and then departed for Abbottabad.<\/p>\n
