Renowned agriculture expert Jamshaid Iqbal Cheema on Monday joined Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and announced his allegiance to the party. He was addressing a press conference he said that Pakistan had a huge potential in agriculture sector and has the capacity to feed 180 million people but unfortunately even today 44 percent of the population sleeps hungry.
Central Vice President PTI Ijaz Chauhary and President PTI Lahore Memoodur Rasheed were also present. Cheema said that it was time to address issues confronting the country. Imran Khan was the only leader who could bring change in society, he added. The PTI leaders said before criticising others, Nawaz Sharif should clarify his position relating to funds of Rs 3.6 million received from ISI. They said Imran Khan is an open book for those who believe in politics based on principles. "The PML-N has a history of corruption and entered in the politics with the support of agencies," he added.
They maintained that the PML-N has violated the mandate that was given to them by the people; rather than playing a role of effective opposition it acted as a friendly opposition. They also disclosed that Imran Khan would visit rural areas in the near future.
