Minister for Kashmir Affairs and Gilgit Baltistan Engineer Amir Muqam has stressed the need for joint efforts to put the country on the track of rapid progress and development.

Addressing a public gathering in Haripur, he said some political elements are trying to create instability in the country.

The Minister said under the leadership of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, the government has achieved many successes on political, diplomatic, and defence fronts.

Referring to the victory of PML-N in the bye-election, he said it reflects public confidence in the policies of the incumbent government.

Amir Muqam congratulated the newly elected MNA Babar Nawaz Khan and expressed hope that he will work for the welfare and development of Haripur.
