Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Sharif has said that timely holding of general election is obligatory for stability of the country and any attempt to delay polls would be foiled.

Talking to media persons here in Lahore on Saturday, Shahbaz Sharif said that political parties which were concerned about increasing popularity of Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) among the masses were putting all out efforts to delay elections but his party would not let any such conspiracy to succeed.
He said that Metro Bus Project was long term and would lessen the problems faced by motorists due to traffic jam.
The Chief Minister said that if the masses expressed satisfaction in the Metro Bus Project then such development projects would also be initiated in other big cities of the province.
He asserted that no one could question the performance of Punjab government as during the past five years it set new examples of merit and transparency which have not been witnessed in regimes of former governments.
