ISLAMABAD– Marriyum Aurangzeb, the federal minister for information and broadcasting, claimed on Sunday that Imran Khan was to blame for the nation’s economic, political, and constitutional crises. She responded to a statement made by the former prime minister Imran Khan by saying that the PTI leader’s support was at its end and that he was destined to fade into history.
She claimed that on the advice of his facilitators, he violated the constitution. She continued, “You claimed that Mohsin Naqvi plotted against your government, and now you claim that they are using violence against you and your party members.” Marriyum said “terrorists” who throw gasoline bombs will be held accountable. Imran will be disqualified, according to her, because of illegal funding, watch theft, and his refusal to accept ownership of his daughter.
The federal minister said the government was determined to rid the country of this anarchist and chaos-causing man.
She said PTI chief had promised to end corruption in 90 days, bring the economy on track in 100 days, bring 200 billion dollars in country, create 10 million jobs and make 5 million housing units for homeless, but failed to do so. She said time for him to befool people had ended.
Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb fired a broadside at the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) for unleashing a targeted social media campaign against the free flour scheme launched by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to provide relief to the masses in the holy month of Ramzan.
“Ironically, those who have looted the people’s flour, bread and sugar for four years are trying to make the prime minister’s free flour scheme controversial,” she said while referring to the previous government’s tenure.
The minister, in a news statement, said the PTI leadership which had a “dirty mindset” did not even spare people-centric projects, politicizing them just to achieve their ulterior motives.
Marriyum urged the media to refrain from publishing false and anti-public news which reflected such “filthy mindset”.
Imran Khan might have ordered infected wheat during his government’s tenure, she said sarcastically while dismissing reports circulating on the social media regarding distribution of low quality edible at free flour centers.
She said that it was beyond her understanding that why the PTI leadership got hurt when the projects like metro, orange train, free flour and electricity were initiated for the people of Punjab.
Imran Khan, who had deprived the people of sugar and wheat, was worried that how Shehbaz Sharif had been ensuring free distribution of these edibles among the masses, Marriyum remarked.
She said people did not need to worry as the country no longer had a prime minister like Imran Khan who did not only render the people jobless by robbing them of their employments, but also forced them to have their three times meal on Langar Khana (food centres).
The minister said that now the country was blessed with a prime minister like Shehbaz Sharif who worked tirelessly to chart Pakistan on path of progress and development by ensuring massive job opportunities for youth and reducing poverty.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has resumed all the development projects that were halted by Imran Khan who now bent on politicizing the free flour scheme, she added.
