Sharjeel takes strong exception to statement made by Shahbaz

Sindh Minister for Information, Sharjeel Memon has taken strong exception to the statement made by Chief Minister of Punjab, Shahbaz Sharif during a rally in Lahore on Friday. In a press conference on Saturday, Sharjeel said people of the country were intelligent enough to see through the actual motives of Shahbaz Sharif and his party Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz).
"The foul language used by Shahbaz against President Zardari was an attempt to hide misgivings of his party," he said. He said his party leadership did not want to stoop low but people are the best judge who could never forget loot and plunder made by Sharif brothers under the name of Yellow Cab Scheme.
"Even during their present rule the exchequer was deprived of Rs 1.6 billion under the fake scheme of Sasti Roti," said Sharjeel. The minister said PML-N was suffering from dengue fever and getting jittery due to their growing unpopularity in face of bad administration in Punjab. He said a reflection of their bad management was evident from the fact that despite spending millions on spray to end dengue no concrete results could be achieved and people continue to die of dengue fever in the province.
He said it sounded extremely paradoxical that those who plundered the country and escaped abroad under an arrangement with a military ruler were now pointing fingers towards leader of a party that has a long history of struggle and sacrifice. Sharjeel advised PML-N leader to desist from tactics that may provoke people who may go to any extreme for the sake of democracy in the country.
"We will not allow any one to derail democracy and democratic rule in the country," he said. Sharjeel said President Zardari, a great proponent of democracy has already handed over all his authority to the parliament and the fact is largely appreciated by the people in general.
In reply to question about rally taken out by Sharif's in Lahore, he said it was a show of "patwaris and tehsildars." He said Shahbaz while talking of dynastic culture failed to mention that this was very much prevalent in his own party and the administration managed by him in the largest province of the country. "The fact that his son Hamza Sharif is the defacto chief minister of Punjab is known to all," he said.
