Punjab Governor Chaudhry Mohammad Sarwar has said that opposition is solacing itself while expecting something in March.
He was talking to Provincial Forests Minister Muhammad Sibtain Khan, CM Complaint Cell’s Chairman Zubair Khan Niazi, Punjab Overseas Commission’s Vice Chairman Muhammad Waseem Ramey, MPA Khayal Kastro and delegations from various districts here at Governor House.
He said many months of March have yet to come till 2023 but Imran Khan will continue to remain as prime minister. Opposition’s protest in and out of the parliament is aimed at obstructing accountability process that will not stop.
Nobody can point finger at the honesty of Prime Minister Imran Khan. Government’s steps to control price-hike are being monitored by Prime Minister Imran Khan. The governor said that Prime Minister Imran Khan was working with all sincerity and honesty for progress of the country and prosperity of the nation due to which health, education and other sectors were improving with each passing day.
Insha Allah, country will be purged of problems like poverty, price-hike and corruption till completion of constitutional tenure of the present government. Due to viable and better policies of the government, he added, terrorism has been eliminated, while country was attaining internal stability with improved economic indicators.
World Bank and other international institutions were acknowledging Pakistan’s economic stability, while European Union also appreciated Pakistan government’s steps to control corruption and other crimes.
He said that the opposition parties, which had committed massive corruption and put the country under billions of dollars debt during their respective tenure in governments, was now criticising unjustifiably the government mere to gain cheap political popularity. However, he said, the people well recognize the real face of the opposition and it can no more hoodwink the masses through its false propaganda.
The opposition’s uproar in and out of the parliament was aimed at hampering only the accountability process, while Prime Minister Imran Khan has already said categorically that whatever the opposition does, the accountability against corruption will not be stopped in the country.
He argued that if opposition is with clean hands then it must face cases in the court of law instead of taking to streets for protests, and Pakistani courts are independent and deciding the cases in accordance with provisions of law, constitution and justice.
