Qaumi Watan Party (QWP) Chairman Aftab Ahmad Khan Sherpao on Saturday criticized former prime minister Imran Khan for creating hurdles to avoid facing the courts. “Imran Khan used to talk about the rule of law, but his conduct has proven he did not practice what he preached,” he said, while addressing a gathering at Hayatabad here.

Former Nazim Haji Masood Khattak announced joining the QWP along with his family members and supporters. About Imran Khan’s willingness for talks, he said, how could the government trust the PTI leader as Imran Khan used to say he would not talk with “thieves”. He remarked that talks could be held in an environment of trust and mutual respect so the onus was on Imran Khan to do so.

Aftab Sherpao said it was the responsibility of the government to take steps to ensure a peaceful environment for holding the elections. He also expressed concern over the prevailing uncertainty in the merged districts, saying that the ex-Fata did not receive the promised funds due to which discontent was growing among the local population. He asked the government to pay heed to the plight of the merged districts and release the funds so that uplift activities could take place there.

About the looming flour crisis, Aftab Sherpao said it was ironic that Pakistan, despite being an agricultural country, was facing the shortage of flour and sugar.

However, he said the flour crisis was linked to mismanagement, black marketing and hoarding. He urged the authorities concerned to take steps to ensure transparency in the distribution of the flour and other commodities to give relief to the people.
