We, not Hussain Nawaz, should object to JIT: Imran
Says there is no law or development in SindhKANDHKOT: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief Imran Khan on Wednesday said that rather than Hussain Nawaz, it should have been his party to express reservations about the Joint Investigation Team (JIT) constituted to probe the Panama Leaks as representatives of all the institutions in the JIT were principally under Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.
Addressing a huge gathering attended by party leaders, workers and other people at the Anaj Mandi Ground here on Wednesday, Imran Khan said that the reason behind unemployment and lack of education in the province was that the money meant to be invested in Sindh was laundered abroad.
He said there was no law or development in the Sindh province. Neither schools nor hospitals are being run in a proper way. "We don't have the money to run Pakistan. When we are short of money, then we have to go to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and seek loans and later it is the common man who has to pay back those loans. Somebody else steals money and then you, a common man, compensate via taxes."
The PTI chairman said that when a nation witnesses a crime and doesn't take a stand against its cruelty, the same nation then has to pay a price. "I have been visiting Sindh for the last 21 years and has never seen an improvement in the province since," he stated.
Khan further said that no one would respect a prime minister who was under a criminal investigation by the JIT. He said it was embarrassing for the whole nation to see that neither Prime Minister Nawaz was allowed to speak in the Riyadh Conference nor Trump named Pakistan for its sacrifices in the war against terror.
"It is shameful to see that we sacrificed 70,000 Pakistanis in this war against terror and the US president didn't acknowledge Pakistan. I promise you a PTI prime minister will not bow down before anyone." Strict arrangements of security were put in place at the venue. For participants walkthrough gates had been installed at the main routes leading to the ground. More than 10,000 chairs were placed and 20-feet-high and 60-ft-wide stage was put in place.
