Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb on Sunday said the people would not respond to the call of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf supremo Imran Khan for creating chaos, anarchy and violence in the country.
“Imran Khan’s call for protest is another hoax as people do not pay heed to those who ridicule the Election Commission and hurl threats on judiciary,” Marriyum said in a news statement.
She said that the people had unanimously responded to the call of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif who appealed to them to help the flood-affected people.
The minister castigated Imran Khan for abandoning his people in the middle of a protest which he announced by himself. He was bent on creating chaos and anarchy instead of joining the whole nation in flood relief and rehabilitation efforts.
She said that Imran Khan, who was mired in his ego, wanted to ruin every institution, people, and national interests. Imran Khan again wants to reinstall a corrupt model of governance in the country by imposing people like Usman Buzdar and Bushra, she alleged.
Marriyum said that Imran Khan, who had announced the so-called “Haqeeqi Azadi” (real freedom) movement, hired the services of a former CIA chief to improve his image in the United States.
She said that Imran Khan was not ready to spend even a penny on flood affectees, but had been spending millions of rupee on personal publicity. The people who squandered billions of rupees on creating chaos and anarchy can only do hypocrisy, she added.
The Information Minister said that Imran Khan had been exposed by people who knew that he used their money to promote himself. People knew that Imran Khan was a “foreign agent.”
