Summary PML-N leader says he would not take revenge from anybody after coming to power.
LAHORE (Dunya News):-Addressing the PML-N working in Lahore on Saturday night, Mian Nawaz Sharif said that he wanted to bring change in Pakistan.
Flanked by his close family, Sharif gave a victory speech to hundreds of jubilant supporters who shouted "Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif" at his centre-right Pakistan Muslim League-N party headquarters in Lahore.
"Whatever promises we made with our youth, I assure you that we fulfil each of them. Results are still coming but there is a confirmation that PML-N will emerge as the largest party," he said, inviting other parties to work with him.
According to the unofficial, partial results it appeared that no single party would win a simple majority of 172 seats in the national assembly, raising the prospect of protracted talks to form a coalition government.
Sharif struck a conciliatory tone following a high-voltage campaign that saw him clash with his main rival, cricket star Imran Khan, whose promises of reform and ending corruption struck a chord with middle-class and youth voters.
"I appeal for all parties to come to the table and sit with me and solve the country s problems," Sharif said.
The election was fought over the country s tanking economy, an appalling energy crisis that causes power cuts of up to 20 hours a day, the alliance in the US-led war on terror, chronic corruption and the dire need for development.
It marked the first time an elected civilian administration completed a full term and handed power to another through the ballot box in a country where there have been three military coups and four military rulers.
Earlier in the evening, both Sharif and Khan won seats they had contested in.
An election commission spokesman said turnout was more than 50 percent and expected to reach up to 60 percent, which would make it the highest since 1977.
The result represented a remarkable comeback for a man who was deposed as premier in a 1999 military coup and came after millions of people defied polling day attacks that left 24 dead to participate in the high-turnout vote.
Sharif served as prime minister from 1990-93, when he was sacked for corruption, and from 1997-99, when he was deposed by the military, although his family say he is a changed man who will this time govern more successfully.
He said that PML-N had an agenda to lead the country towards progress and prosperity.
He regretted that some political parties tried to scandalize him but he had forgiven them.
He said he would solve the problems of the country and would especially work for the wellbeing of the youth. He vowed to solve the problem of loadshedding with the help of other stakeholders.
“I want to bring revolution in the system and make Pakistan a better place for the youth.
He said that the nation should be thankful to Almighty Allah for their victory.
He said he would invite all political forces to table and run the affairs of country in consultation with other parties.
Soeaking on the occasion Main Shabaz Sharif said he will continue serving the masses.
