PM Shehbaz fires broadside at Imran Khan over ‘politics of lies’
ISLAMABAD (MNP) – Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said on Friday the politics of PTI Chairman Imran Khan was based on lies which are getting exposed by the day.
In a tweet, he said Imran Khan’s antics and somersaults continued to disappoint the nation. He said the “only constant is his desperation to get back into power even if it involves plunging the country into a protracted period of instability”.
“These people were only concerned with saving their money and were afraid the PTI would come to power,” the deposed premier said. The society suffers as a result of torture on those with less power, he added.
Citing the example of the developed countries, Mr Khan said, “In the developed countries, there is a supremacy of law.”
In response to the LHC’s decision to hold elections in Punjab within 90 days, Mr Khan praised the judiciary, saying the PTI had high expectations of the judiciary.
He feared the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) would mount pressure on the judiciary. “The masses were looking up to the judiciary to protect the constitution,” Mr Khan said.
