Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Khyber Pakhtunkhwa chapter's president Mohammad Hamayun Khan warned the Prime Minister Imran Khan over influencing National Accountability Bureau (NAB) against political rivals and fulfilment of electoral commitments. Otherwise, he said people will not remain silent spectators and take streets against the government.
In a statement issued here on Sunday, the PPP provincial leader said the leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had made big commitments for provision of jobs and houses to the people, but after coming into power it had forgotten the promises made.
If the prime minister is really sincere to hold the corrupt people accountable, then he should start the process from his own home instead of targeting the political opponents," the PPP leader said and added that his party leadership could not be frightened through NAB notices.
Hamayun Khan said the opposition parties did not need to point out weaknesses of the government as Prime Minister Imran Khan himself has hinted at midterm elections in the country.
He said PPP sacrifices were live example of its determination to face challenges during different regimes. He held the government responsible for the prevailing uncertain situation created due to the unprecedented price hike, increasing unemployment in the country.
The PPP leader said the country was facing worst kind of economic crisis but the government was unable to frame a concrete economic policy, adding that the rulers had the only option to bow before the IMF and World Bank for seeking high interest loans which would further increase the financial burden.
He advised the government to avoid defaming the politicians otherwise the people in powers would have to face similar situation in future and such practices might weaken the democratic process in the country.
The country's affairs, he said could not be run through ordinances and the government would be better to focus on legislation in coordination with the opposition parties members. If Imran Khan did not change his attitude towards opposition, he would always be called a "selected PM in the history," he warned.
