\nHe was addressing a ceremony after reviewing the construction work on six-lane overhead bridge of Imamia Colony railways crossing in Lahore.
\nThe Prime Minister said if the chronic issue of load shedding and the scourge of terrorism can be overcome, free medicines can be provided to the poor, road infrastructure can be laid, then surely, the country can move on the path of progress and prosperity.
\nHe said there exist economic challenges but the nation will have to decide whether they would live on foreign debts or to stand on its feet by carving a niche among the comity of nations with honesty, dedication and hard work.
