She remarked, "You have chosen to be part of the caravan of progress. From 2018 to 2022, Pakistan witnessed the consequences of incompetence." The PML-N leader highlighted the challenges faced by women, such as the scarcity of gas in homes, and attributed Pakistan's current state to issues created by those desiring political vendettas. She praised the exemplary progress during the Nawaz Sharif era and cited Lahore as a model of development, contrasting it with the current issues. She emphasised PML-N's resilience, stating, "The party has endured difficult times. Leaders, workers, councillors – none have deserted. PML-N is not just a party; it's a family. All party workers are like brothers.” Maryam assured the public that her party’s agenda for the next five years is centred on addressing the people's issues, including water, electricity, and gas. She urged party members to join hands for the service of the nation and to alleviate the public from inflation and problems. "Our future and progress are intertwined with Nawaz Sharif. Removing Nawaz Sharif will leave nothing but chaos in the country. Under Shehbaz Sharif's tenure in Punjab, every project and job was based on merit, while the province now suffers from corruption and bribery,” she further said.
