NOWSHERA: Assailing ex-prime minister Imran Khan for catchy slogans of ‘Naya Pakistan’ and ‘change’, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-Parliamentarians (PTIP) chairman Pervez Khattak on Thursday alleged that the country and nation were suffering due to these hollow slogans.
“The PTIP will usher in a new era of peace, development and prosperity in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa by implementing my party manifesto in letter and spirit,” he said while speaking to gatherings as part of election campaign in various places of the district.
The PTIP candidate for NA-34 and PK-89, Dr Imran Khattak, PK-85 aspirant Ibrahim Khattak, PK-86 candidate Ismail Khattak and others also addressed the gatherings.
He said that their manifesto for the general elections was a guideline for peace, development and reforms in education, health and all other sectors.
Pervez Khattak also pledged that the PTIP would make all-out efforts for justice and equal rights for all as well as development in all spheres of economy besides ending joblessness and bringing agricultural and industrial revolution in the province.
“Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, Pakistan People’s Party, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl, Awami National Party and others had never implemented their manifestos in letter and spirit and had just showed green pastures to the masses,” the ex-chief minister said, adding former prime minister Imran Khan had also raised hollow slogans of ‘change’ and did nothing practical for improving standard of life of common man.
Pervez Khattak said his party believed that the future was in modern agriculture techniques, so its government would provide a framework for land utilisation to irrigate the un-irrigated land through flood dams.
He said after coming to power, his party would also bring the merged tribal districts on a par with other parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa through massive development and provision of basic services to the people.
