LAHORE: Prime Minister Imran Khan Friday said the government had no magic wand to bring about the promised change in five years adding that this limited constitutional term was insufficient for planning big development projects.
Launching the countrywide spring tree plantation drive in the Miyawaki Urban Forest at Jilani Park here, he said in parliamentary democracy, elections were held every five years due to which big development projects could not be planned. He said bringing about such magical change in five years was not possible in any part of the world.
