Replying to young Aqeedat’s letter, PM Sharif said that he would do his best to bring peace to the country that Quaid-e-Azam envisioned.
Aqeedat’s younger brother, Moarikh Ahmed, had also sent a letter to UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon to ensure peace in the Indo-Pak region.
In response, Ban Ki Moon assured the young Pakistani that he would make sure that peace prevails.
Both siblings said that they might be young but they would always raise their voice for making Pakistan a safer place.
