PREAMBLE

PPM’s Strong Commitment to the Nation

The PPM agenda is the demand of the entire nation, and is designed to

put an end to the countless sufferings of the nation since the creation of this

great country and to enable it to realize its long neglected aspirations.

The vision PPM is to realize a modern and Islamic republic welfare

state, which advocates tolerance, moderation and freedom to practice the

religion of one’s choice. We look to the future with hope and confidence as we

set Pakistan on a course of political stability, social harmony, and economic

prosperity as a Leader of the Islamic world.

The PPM is not merely a political party but is also imbued with

welfare ambitions; it is a broad-based National Movement that embraces

the interests of all Pakistanis.

A people whose cultural and ethnic diversities blend into common goals and

aspirations for a just society based on a Islamic democratic values and culture

and the rule of law.

The PPM is determined to provide a credible new leadership from the

middle class population that can restore Pakistan's political and economic

sovereignty through building a new bond of trust between the government

and the people. Only through the active participation of the people can we

collectively mobilize our human and material resources to forge ahead on the

road to become a confident and self-reliant nation of the modern world.

Our Ideology is a Realistic Approach to the true values of Islam.

The Nation deeply demands the sharia law and sees

them as the only tool to over-come all hard-ships which they are going trough

in this uncertain situation marked by internal and external threat to the home-

land.

Pakistanis crave for dignity and self-respect. Any hope of recovery from the

multifaceted crisis engulfing the nation remains illusory without reviving the

self-esteem of the people and restoring their confidence in the political

leadership. We can achieve this by following the Principles of “Unity, Faith and

Discipline” as expounded by the Quaid-e-Azam.

PPM is committed to transparency in government and an across-the-board

accountability. It believes in federalism and functional autonomy of the

provinces, based on the spirit and fundamental principles of parliamentary

democracy as envisaged in the 1973 Constitution.

We believe in the power of the people and their ownership of the

country and our strength and power is our people.

Human development would thus remain our highest priority.

Pakistan has rich and diverse cultures including those of the minorities. We

must nurture and allow every opportunity for this diversity of our culture and

traditions to flourish further.

Religious and cultural values of our family system bind our society. Despite

the grinding poverty and injustice that beset us today, it is the structure of the

family that provides the net that keeps the social fabric intact. The present

dismal state of women and children in terms of their access to health care,

nutrition, and education can not be ignored. Investment in women and

children would ensure that the family structure remains intact and future

generations are brought up in a healthy and secure environment forever.

Goals to be achieved

Establish Pakistan as a truly independent Islamic Republic

according to the 1973 Constitution as a sovereign Islamic state

that becomes a source of pride for our people and Islamic Umma.
