Advisor to Prime Minister on Accountability and Interior Barrister Mirza Shahzad Akbar on Saturday said the opposition’s stubbornness to hold mass gatherings in Peshawar and advocating lockdown in Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Sindh testifies their double standards and lust for power.
In a tweet, he said the great example of opposition’s hypocrisy is – they wanted lockdown in the areas of their governance, AJK, Sindh and adamant to hold mass gatherings in Peshawar, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The opposition parties are spreading the deadly Covid-19 among the public brazenly whereas nobody could meet them in their private gatherings without showing negative report of his or her Corona test.
Commenting on the PDM’s rally in Peshawar, the Special Assistant to Chief Minister on Information, Kamran Bangash said that opposition alliance were bent on taking revenge from people of Peshwar for rejecting them in last two general elections. He said that people of provincial metropolitan had reposed full confidence in PTI general elections in the last two general elections and local body elections held in 2015.
‘PTI has sweeping victories and PDM allies are taking revenge for the same’, he said. He said that in basis on performance, PTI would sweep elections in 2023. Kamran Bangash said in a statement said that the government had the authority to take legal action against PMD leaders under pandemic ordinance, if they took law into their hands by holding public gathering despite ban.
