LAHORE: PML-Q senior leader Ch Parvaiz Elahi has said that we kept searching for a lawyer for the International Court of Justice in the case of a serving Indian navy officer Kulbhushan who was caught red-handed doing terrorism in Balochistan. 

He said this while addressing a grand workers convention in Sheikhupura Sunday which was attended by thousands of enthusiastic workers. Parvaiz said Nawaz considers Kulbhushan case only of the army, he was caught by the army while committing terrorism and sabotage in Balochistan and India calls him its son but Nawaz has not said even a single word against him, Nawaz was given in writing but he did mention him even in his speech in the United Nations, 

in fact the government had intentionally mishandled Kulbhushan case for strengthening the Indian stance. He said in the Panama case, the JIT is test of all national institutions and established people have been included in it. Its fortnight report should be made public. Elahi said farmers, workers, employees, businessmen, industrialists all are fed up with the rulers. 

He said during his government half bill of agricultural tubewells was paid by Punjab government, we ensured water reach tail end, got concrete courses constructed, provided employment to the people, gave them prosperity. 

Parvaiz said if someone does not like the name of Kalabagh dam then it can also be given the name of Pakistan dam, this will not only provide abundant water but also cheaper electricity. Their power projects are failing one after the other because these are dramas of taking commission, they should establish even one institution like ours 1122. They are in power for nine years but they have done nothing for welfare of the people. The World Bank report says that Shehbaz Sharif is spending 62 per cent of Punjab budget on Lahore. 

PML-Q Secretary General Tariq Bashir Cheema said Law Minister Sanaullah says JIT has been formed to bury the Panama case, "but I say now nobody will go to Jeddah, now they will have to account for their deeds". He said leader is only one whose house, business and children are in Pakistan, vote only for him so that he works for his country, era of prosperity which was in Punjab can only be brought back by Parvez Elahi. 

Earlier on arrival, Parvaiz was welcomed and they were turbaned. People listened to the speech of Ch Parvaiz Elahi by standing in nearby fields as they could not place inside the pandaal, participants kept chanting slogans in support of Ch Shujaat Hussain, Ch Parvaiz Elahi and Moonis Elahi and "Go Nawaz Go".

Khurrum Munawar Manj presented welcome address whereas Munawar Hussain Manj, Salman Munawar Manj, Rana Zahid Naseer, Tariq Mahmud Manj, Khalid Mahmud Manj, Engr Shehzad Elahi, Bao Rizwan, Dr Zain Ali Bhatti, Pir Mukhtar Shah, Bakhtawar Manj, Malik Shakeel Sikander, Zulfiqar Pappan and other leaders were also present.
