Islamabad: Dr. Akbar Nasir Khan, Inspector General, Islamabad Police said that Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah had done a great favor to us by creating an independent country for us and we should develop Pakistan according to his vision. He stressed that the youth should follow Quaid’s golden principles of faith, unity, and discipline to play an effective role in the national development of their country. He said that blocking roads and commercial centers to protest is a negation of Quaid’s vision. He said that for the last 19 months, Islamabad Police has not allowed anyone to block roads and markets in the federal capital and reiterated that the Islamabad Policy will not spare any sacrifice to make the Capital a peaceful city. He said this while addressing as chief guest a ceremony at Islamabad Chamber of Commerce and Industry to celebrate the Quaid-e-Azam Day.
