PML-N president claims Imran has turned a ‘blind eye’ to Karachi’s problems
In a strange move, the MQM-P, an ally of the ruling PTI, met Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif on Tuesday, with the PML-N leader claiming that Prime Minister Imran Khan has turned a “blind eye” to Karachi’s problems.
Addressing a press conference flanked by MQM-P Deputy Convenor Amir Khan and other party members after the meeting, Shahbaz said that PM Imran is not worried about the problems of the masses but is only “concerned about the Opposition.”
“Life has become hard for people due to additional taxes, rising electricity prices, etc,” he said, adding that all these issues were discussed with the MQM-P delegation in his meeting.
Shahbaz was of the view that the people of Pakistan had not imagined a “more corrupt government in history” as compared to the current government.
Recalling the tenure of PML-N, the party president said that the former prime minister Nawaz Sharif initiated projects worth billions of rupees for the people of Karachi.
Shahbaz said that during the meeting, PML-N members urged the MQM-P leaders to think about Pakistan before they think about their alliance with the PTI-led government.
“Today’s ally can become tomorrow’s rival,” he said, adding that the delegation will discuss all issues highlighted during the meeting with their party leadership in Karachi.
Speaking on the occasion, MQM-P leader Amir Khan said that people “want to get rid of the government as soon as possible.”
