ISLAMABAD: Khurram Dastagir, the federal minister for power for the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, stated on Monday that Imran Khan needs to accept responsibility for the mistakes that have brought the nation dangerously close to “bankruptcy.”
He criticized the previous Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-led administration’s ineffective foreign policy, claiming that “we are reaping what Imran Khan sowed on the foreign front, as at this time, no country is willing to talk to Pakistan.” Dastagir emphasized the importance of national unity and the urgent need for all political parties to adopt it, adding that there was no other option but to reach agreement on the Charter of Economy. Today was the time to make decisions based on the constitution, the law, and moral principles as opposed to following the crowd.
Meanwhile,Rana Tanveer Hussain, the federal minister for federal education and professional training, claimed on Monday that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf leader Imran Khan tried to sow political unrest by pursuing an agenda of economic unrest in the nation. The PML-N leader told the media that the Nawaz Sharif party’s leadership was strong and had a firm grip on local politics. No matter when the elections took place—during the current administration or after—the PML-N was prepared, the party said, adding that “in my personal opinion, general elections should be held as a whole rather than in tidbits.”
Moreover, Member National Assembly and senior leader of Pakistan Muslim League- Nawaz (PML-N) Tahira Aurangzeb Monday asked Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan should surrender first in ‘Jail Bharo’ Tehreek then support his party workers, especially the youth who are disappointed.
She expressed these words while talking to PTV news channel on Monday.
She said IK does not want to get arrested and had named the Jail Bharo movement after the party’s workers, adding, PTI’s senior leadership is seeking bail from the courts and asking their supporters to get arrested.
Imran Khan’s only aim is to use the innocent youth workers for his conspiracy, she added.
The ‘Jail Bharo Tehreek’ was a flopped circus show where PTI’s leaders and MPAs were seen taking pictures and videos inside the prison vans and when they saw the police were coming to arrest them, they ran away.
MNA further warned that government will not allow those who attempt to hold the nation hostage for their personal gains.
Replying to a question, she said the PML-N workers’ convention has already started by Maryum Nawaz, adding, we are not afraid of elections and that her party is ready to contest elections and will win with a majority of seats.
She also mentioned that the party’s supremo Nawaz Sharif and his wife Begum Kalsoom Nawaz had the historic struggle for the country and they had launched a successful tehreek in past as well.
Muhammad Nawaz Sharif had always brought the country out of a quagmire, and again PML-N under his leadership would revive the economic situation soon, she expressed her confidence.
The public is now fed-up of listening to the conspiracy mantra of the PTI chief, she said, adding, without Mian Nawaz Sharif, the situation cannot improve. People must prepare, Nawaz Sharif will come to Pakistan very soon.
