LAHORE: Punjab information minister Fayyazul Hassan Chohan has said that Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PMLN) President Shehbaz Sharif will not be given any freedom over his corruption scandals.
Fayyaz ul Hassan Chohan said that Shehbaz Sharif would be held accountable for all his dishonesty and corruption scandals. “The PML-N is consistently bad-mouthing the federal government and is trying to escape accountability under the garb of coronavirus,” Chohan said.
He asserted that the Shehbaz Sharif should submit a reply to the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) as the bureau summoned the PML-N leader earlier and he skipped the hearing.
Chohan further said that Shehbaz Sharif upon his recent return from London had claimed that he would wage a war against coronavirus and that was the purpose for his return and now he is using the same pathogen as an excuse to escape accountability.
Earlier while highlighting the positive measures taken by the federal government against the COVID-19, Chohan said that that the government was ensuring all facilities to the needy people during the partial lockdown.
He also urged the people to adopt preventive measures, like social-distancing and staying home. He added that the economic package for the patients infected by the virus would be soon launched across Punjab.
