Won’t let Zardari bask in Bhutto’s glory: Imran

HYDERABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Friday rejected the amnesty scheme for the non taxpayers and announced to challenge it in court.

Addressing a news conference in Hyderabad on Friday, Imran said 57pc of the budget allocated to Punjab has been spent on Lahore only. He said that the amnesty scheme has been introduced to favor thieves and said he had directed the leaders to raise the issue at every forum.

Lashing out at ex-prime minister, Imran Khan said that Nawaz Sharif has incited people against the government institutions. He said that Sindhis have also decided not to vote for Pakistan People's Party (PPP) this time.

The PTI chief said that they will not let Zulfikar Ali Bhutto live in Asif Ali Zardari's form, adding that brother and sister were busy in loot and plunder Sindh

The entire budget allocated for Punjab is spent by one person i.e. Shahbaz Sharif, said Imran, accusing the province’s chief minister for using the funds for development work in a select few areas. He further criticised the Sharifs, saying they were fooling the public. The PTI chief said former prime minister Nawaz Sharif points fingers at institutions while Shahbaz praises them. Imran was referring to Shahbaz’s recent statement on the chief of the army staff in which he called the latter a professional and straightforward person.About Sindh where the Pakistan People’s Party is in power, Imran said its condition was the worst among all the four provinces.

The level of poverty is the highest in Sindh where PPP Co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari and his sister were subjecting the people to torture, the PTI chief said. Therefore, people of the province have decided to get rid of PPP.

Imran said Nawaz Zardari and Foreign Minister Khawaja Asif were involved in money laundering. The illegal transfer of money was plunging the country deeper into loans.

During his news conference, Imran also condemned the Kunduz attacks saying such incidents will lead to anarchy. He added the US attacks in Afghanistan were adding to the problem.

Regarding the atrocities in occupied Kashmir, Imran said the voices against the issue should be raised across the globe.
