Imran Khan’s tantrums and diatribes are a red herring for his political failure, Minister of State for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage Marriyum Aurangzeb said in response to PTI chief’s address to a public rally in Talagang on Sunday.
The minister said Imran should apologise to the nation for lying so persistently, attempting to create chaos in the country and deceiving the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
Marriyum said the biggest problem of Pakistan was Imran himself and his biggest problem was development, which he had been trying to obstruct.
The minister said that Imran had taken upon himself the responsibility to hurl unsubstantiated allegations at the state institutions and to ridicule them.
She said, “The three times elected prime minister is answering questions about his three generations and when Imran is asked to answer issues related to him he impulsively resorts to hurling invectives at the state institutions. However, no amount of clamouring and crying can help his cause as he will have to be answerable to the people in the coming elections.” “Khan talks unabashedly about accountability notwithstanding the fact that the KP Accountability Commission has been dysfunctional for the last one and half years,” she went on to say.
The minister pointed out that Imran was crying hoarse to cover-up his corruption and incompetence and was working on an agenda to create chaos and discord in the country.
People were asking what Imran Khan had done in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province during the last three-and-a-half years except planting “two trees”, she said, adding, “People are urging him to show his performance instead of pointing fingers at others.”
The minister said that there was still a chance for Imran Khan to abandon his negative politics and join hands with Nawaz Sharif for progress and prosperity of Pakistan.
