BANNU: Awami National Party (ANP) provincial president Ameer Haider Hoti on Sunday said that the alleged horse-trading in the Senate election had exposed the popularity of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
Speaking at a public gathering at the Bannu Sports Complex, he said that PTI had claimed that all of its members in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly would vote for its candidates in the Senate polls but their 52 lawmakers did so.
The ANP leader said that all ethnic groups in Pakistan supported their own leaders but the Pakhtuns followed non-Pakhtun leaders. He said that his party was working for protection of the rights of Pakhtuns in Pakistan and vowed that ANP would no more allow exploitation of Pakhtuns in the country.
Haider Hoti said that chief minister's job was to take care of the interest of the province and development while the KP chief minister was busy dancing on the container. He challenged the PTI leaders claim that they ended the ANP politics in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, saying that even suicide bombers could not put an end to the ANP politics.
Haider Hoti claimed the current government's policies had increased debt burden of the residents of the province. He criticised the PTI Chairman Imran Khan for not making his party government accountable on borrowing that would cripple the economy of the province in the long run.
