The business community of Southern Punjab has hailed the decision of Judicial Commission which has stamped bona fide of general elections 2013 and will certainly give strength to the democratically elected government to work with a renewed commitment and vigour for the progress, prosperity and solidarity of Pakistan. Welcoming the decision, Mian Iqbal Hassan president of Multan chamber of commerce and Industry (MCCI) said that Pakistan can no more afford agitations, strikes, and "Dharna" etc.
He said that this decision is actually in line with the well-defined policy of MCCI to resolve issues and differences through negotiations instead of resorting to protest on roads. He said that election process after every five years provide political parties enough time and opportunities to launch their electioneering and disseminate their manifesto to the maximum voters. He said that unluckily, there is no tradition to accept the defeat and most of the political parties start blame game instead of identifying the real causes of their failure in attracting masses. Mian Iqbal Hassan has congratulated Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif and Chief Minister Punjab Shahbaz Sharif for handling this critical issue with steadfastness to democratic norms and hoped that they would now fully concentrate on economic issues and this ticklish issue has been resolved.
