PESHAWAR: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) president and Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif slammed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Wednesday terming the party a ‘tehreek’ of civil disobedience and sit-ins.
“The politics of PTI revolves around sit-ins, civil disobedience and inflicting damages upon the country’s economy. Where was Imran when there was a severe Dengue outbreak in Peshawar?” Shehbaz said while speaking to a workers convention in Peshawar.
The Punjab CM continued his jabs at Imran saying that the PTI chief had claimed that he would make a new Pakistan but, he added, “when I came to Peshawar, I thought it would have been transformed, however I did not see any infrastructural development or an end to energy crisis.”
He reiterated that PML-N lifetime president Nawaz Sharif is the leader of the party and that the former PM would remain the leader in the future too. Shehbaz, however, added that party headship is a challenge for him and that he would do his best to live up to expectations.
Shehbaz also vowed to ‘give it his all’ in order to work for the country’s prosperity, while he also said that the APS martyrs’ blood would not go waste and that the country would put an end to terrorism.
