 Nawaz Sharif was the Prime Minister of  Pakistan three times from 1990 to 1993, 1997 to 1999, 2013 to 2017, and each time Nawaz Sharif was dismissed on charges of corruption and mismanagement in government. All the cases against him from 1983 to 1999 were dismissed under NRO by President  General Pervez Musharraf, it was necessary to build a reconciliatory theme in the political arena by removing politically motivated cases, while some believed that the NRO allowed Nawaz Sharif to return to Pakistan’s politics without legal consequences due to pending corruption cases. In 2013, Nawaz Sharif became the Prime Minister for the third time. In 2018, the Panama Papers were leaked, in which shocking revelations of money laundering in offshore banks of Nawaz Sharif and his family came to light.

  Nawaz Sharif has faced multiple corruption allegations throughout his political career. His involvement in the Panama Papers scandal raised serious questions about his financial dealings and offshore assets. The leaked documents revealed his family-owned luxury apartments in London through offshore companies. Despite the controversy, Nawaz Sharif consistently denied any wrongdoing, but the allegations tarnished his reputation. Nawaz Sharif and his family failed to defend themselves in the Supreme Court in the Panama Papers money laundering case, on which the Supreme Court convicted Nawaz Sharif.

The inability to address this crisis significantly impacted citizens’ daily lives and industrial productivity. People blamed his administration for not taking timely and decisive measures to resolve the energy shortfall.

  Nawaz Sharif’s government lacked transparency and accountability. Key institutions responsible for oversight, such as the National Accountability Bureau, faced challenges in pursuing corruption cases against influential politicians. People believe that Sharif’s influence hindered effective accountability mechanisms.

   Nawaz Sharif’s confrontations with the judiciary during his term as Prime Minister were highly publicized. Nawaz Sharif attacked the Supreme Court by his party workers, and the court was about to rule against him. Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif used to bribe judges. He nominated judges to high courts who were not qualified to be judges. The rule of law was lacking in Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s government.

  His handling of security issues, particularly the Kargil conflict with India in 1999, drew criticism. Some argue that his government’s approach lacked strategic foresight and jeopardized regional stability. Additionally, his foreign policy decisions faced scrutiny. His close ties with Saudi Arabia and reluctance to take a strong stance on issues like Kashmir and Afghanistan.

 Nawaz Sharif, do not prove yourself innocent by blaming others, he has to explain all the above charges with evidence in the court of public opinion.
