Imran questions Rs 430 million allocation for Nawaz's 'personal home'

09 May, 2016

Chairman, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Imran Khan on Sunday criticised approval of Rs 430 million by the government for what he called refurbishing of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif's personal home in the pretext of Saarc Summit in Murree.
"Shameful: how govt has approved Rs 43 crores for refurbishing Sharif's personal home in Murree using SAARC Summit in Murree as a pretext," Imran twitted.
"This is not the first time Sharifs used public money on their properties. Rs 11 bn was spent on upgrading of Raiwind estate and it's environs," the PTI chairman said.
"The Raiwind road case is still in NAB. With such abuse of public money by our ldrs (leaders), it is no wonder people are reluctant to pay taxes," he said. Imran also condemned the brutal murder of Khurram Zaki, a human rights activist and social media campaigner.
"Strongly condemn the murder of right activist Khurram Zaki in Karachi. Shameful reflection of the state of law and order and writ of the government," he added.
