Pakistan PM Shehbaz Sharif On India | Pakistan PM Says He'll "Defeat India", Stakes His Name On It

Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif finds himself in a spot of bother after making a claim that might cost him his name. Mr Sharif, known to get carried away and often get animated in his speeches at rallies, has ended up saying his name will cease to exist if Pakistan does not beat India in terms of economy and development. During his recent visit to Dera Ghazi Khan in Pakistan's Punjab province, Mr Sharif was seen getting quite animated and excitable during his public rally. He was seen flinging his fist and arms in the air, occasionally jumping at the podium and indulging in a lot of chest thumping and beating the podium desk. Assuring the people that his government is working hard to address the common person's needs, Mr Sharif said "We will work day and night to ensure the situation in Pakistan improves. The Almighty has always blessed Pakistan." But in what seemed like a sudden adrenaline rush immediately after this statement, he added that "My name won't be Shehbaz Sharif if due to our efforts, Pakistan does not leave India behind" in terms of development and progress.
