LAHORE: Member of the Punjab Assembly (MPA) Uzma Kardar was removed on Monday from the Media Strategy Committee and as a spokesperson for the provincial government, according to official notification.
Sources said Uzma Kardar was removed from Media Strategy Committee of Punjab following the leak of her alleged video call online in which she made controversial statements about Prime Minister Imran Khan’s wife Bushra Bibi and others.
In the call, she claimed that the first lady possessed spiritual powers like controlling jinns, adding that she had taken control of everything at Imran Khan’s Bani Gala residence.
Uzma Kardar went on to say that Bushra Bibi, who married the PTI chairman in 2018, had also restricted the movement of party leaders in the residence and disclosed that there was a line, which is not crossed by anybody.
The PTI leader can be heard in the leaked call saying that ‘establishment’ is controlling the media, adding that both the government and establishment were on the same page.
Kardar termed it a good sign and remarked it was impossible for any government to survive without the establishment’s support. She also remarked about Mehr Tarar and provincial information minister Fayazul Hassan Chohan.
