Islamabad [Pakistan], October 24 : Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz on Saturday said that now was the best time to join her party, as it, along with 11 other members of Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM), have broken the shackles of fear.
"I feel this is the best time to join the PML-N because PML-N and 11 parties in the PDM have broken the shackles of fear," said Maryam Nawaz told party workers, as reported by Geo News.
"The truth is that despite being banned, Nawaz Sharif is the only Pakistani personality whose voice is echoing all over Pakistan," Geo News quoted Maryam.
She added that across the country, the people "can only see the face of one man" who they feel will resolve their problems.
