          ISLAMABAD:Engineer Khurram Dastgir Khan, the federal minister for power, declared on Wednesday that Pakistanis will vote in the General Elections to punish those responsible for the violence on May and teach them lesson. The minister claimed at news conference that Israel’s comments on the human rights situation in Pakistan were meant to obscure the perpetrators of the events of May 9, who have been working to bring about the collapse of the nation ever since they took office following the 2018 elections. Khan claimed that the Foreign office has firmly and appropriately denounced Israel’s statement over the plight of human rights in Pakistan. Pakistan has never recognised Israel, and this is evident from the fact that Pakistani passport allows travel to all other nations but not to Israel. We’ve proved it.

He was of the view that after the 2018 General Elections, voices were being echoed to recognize Israel and this came from the same political party (Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf PTI) which was involved in the horrific incidents.

“We can easily see who benefitted from May 9 incidents and who suffered loss. A sickening campaign was run against the Pakistan Army and Martyrs on social media. Same type of drive was run against the Martyrs when a Pakistan Army helicopter was crashed during flood response,” he said.

Dastgir said everyone clearly knew who was separating and destroying the country and was involved in de-seating Former Primer Muhammad Nawaz Sharif.

“They (PTI) were involved in the bargain deal on the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (IIOJK). When India took over Kashmir all what the then government did was a 1:30 minute silence on Friday,” he said.

He said as to safeguard foreign involvement in the country was necessary to identify and bar those involved in destabilizing the country.

“It was the PTI’s tenure in which Pakistanis were allowed to travel to Israel,” he added.

Dastgir said PTI was involved in attack on Radio Pakistan in Peshawar and also back in 2014 on the building of Pakistan Television.

“PTI asked people to burn electricity bills in 2014 and told overseas Pakistanis to send money through hundi and then civil disobedience. They gave statements for perpetrating disturbance in the ranks of Pakistan Army as well,” he said.

He said the people of Pakistan would elect a government who would take them out of challenges and help Pakistan flourish and prosper.
