ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has strongly criticized the three-year performance report of the Pakistan Tehreek-Insaf (PTI) government, asserting that in the last three years, the country witnessed growth in food price, foreign debt, and unemployment.
In a statement, PML-N Information Secretary Marriyum Aurangzeb said if the PTI had initiated any project in the last three years, it could show its pictures. “Instead the PTI had to steal stock images from an Indian portal to show its performance,” she added.
“If Imran Khan published real pictures of the ‘nightmare of Naya Pakistan’ there would have been pictures of women, children and elderly standing in long queues in scorching heat during Ramazan and humiliated for a single kilogram of sugar,” she claimed.
Meanwhile, Punjab’s opposition leader Hamza Shahbaz Sharif said that instead of celebrating, the PTI’s federal government, as well as its Punjab government, should mourn their incapacity to deliver.
“The PTI should apologise for, instead of applauding, the inflation, unemployment, incompetence, and economic woes of the people. Many stories of flour, sugar, Rawalpindi Ring Road, and medicine scandals are a blot on the face of this government,” he added.
Separately, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that the government’s performance could only be gauged by the smiles in the faces of the people and not by the compilation of “false figures”.
“Imran Khan’s three-year performance is that he has snatched jobs from thousands of Pakistanis,” Bilawal said in a statement issued from the Bilawal House. “In three years, only mafias have benefited in Pakistan”, he said.
Bilawal said that in just three years Imran Khan had brought the country to the brink of a disaster, and the recovery process might take a decade. “Imran Khan has made Pakistan alone in the world. His words are big but his performance is zero,” he added.
