Former Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan on Saturday said that if we need to see a prosperous Pakistan than we should eradicate extremism from the society.

Addressing to Paigham-e-Pakistan Conference in Narowal he said that this is the time we should be united as a nation and should work together for the prosperity of the country.

“Our brave Army defeated such threat of extremism that was not an easy job,” said Khaqan.

“Pakistan is an atomic state by the grace of Allah Almighty but we should counter the internal threats as a nation as well to help out our forces that defend our borders,” added Abbasi.

“A politician should be soft-spoken and should choose his words wisely as derogatory language will lead nowhere,” he concluded.
