Foreig­n minist­er says the govern­ment isn’t scared of Azadi MarchKHANEWAL: Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said that no other system other than democracy can keep Pakistan strong, ruling out any possibility of a non-democratic setup in the country in the wake of opposition’s anti-government protests. The foreign minister said that the opposition could exercise its democratic right of protest, but that should be within the boundaries of law. “All political parties are unanimous on 1973’s Constitution, which is a good omen … this is the beginning of an era of political maturity in Pakistan,” he remarked. He said that Prime Minister Imran would inaugurate Kartarpur Corridor on November 9 to entertain 5,000 Sikh pilgrims daily without visa. The foreign minister said that opening of Abdul Hakeem section on M-4 would help improve business and transportation in the region.
