Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal on Saturday blamed the previous government's policies for rising terror wave.
According to details, addressing an event in Lahore, Iqbal said, "Over thousands of people have been brought from other countries to Pakistan. The government had ended terrorism successfully in our tenure."
"The country's enemies want to stop the economic growth," said Iqbal.
He said, "The terrorists would rather not see economic prosperity in Balochistan."
“Balochistan will get the $5 billion, which paves the way for prosperity across the province," said Iqbal.
"There is no leniency towards the terrorists in Pakistan," said Iqbal.
"The tragic incident of Jaffar Express is strongly deplorable," he added.
Speaking about the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), Iqbal said, "The process of shifting the industry in the CPEC Phase II will be made successful soon."
"The electric vehicles are being manufactured to ensure the facilities for the Pakistani passengers," said Iqbal.
"It is our [government] top-most priority to create better environment for the private sectors," he maintained.
"The labor in China gets expensive, but in Pakistan, the labor is still cheap," Iqbal added.
