OKARA: Former senior Minister for Defense Rao Sikandar Iqbal said that the present government had totally been flopped in maintaining law and order in the country, which was in grip of price hike, unemployment and incidents of murder all around. He said that if such a situation continued to prevail the whole country would engulf into civil war.
He expressed these views while talking to media persons at his residence here. He said the country at present was facing socio-economic and political debacle, which had no example in history.
The country, he said, on internal and external fronts was unsuccessful, while during the former regime the policies were made keeping in view ground realities due to which economically and politically it achieved stability and its geographical frontiers also remained safe. He asked the political and religious parties to jointly formulate a strategy to bring the country out from existing turmoil, failing which there is danger of inflicting a loss to its territorial integrity.—Agencies
