I love Punjab and Punjabis, says Pervaiz Khattak

ISLAMABAD: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Chief Minister Pervaiz Khattak on Wednesday said he loves the Punjab and people of the province because he spent his youth in the land of five rivers, rejecting the impression that he spoke against the second largest province of the country.

“I have thousands of friends in Punjab and I love Punjabis,” he said while talking to Geo News. He insisted that PTI workers and he was subjected to hooliganism and oppression in Swabi, a reference to the events of October 31 when he was stopped by Punjab police from entering the province from where he was to proceed to the federal capital as part of party’s plan to lockdown Islamabad.

“I never said Punjabis attacked us, I said Shahbaz Sharif launched an attack on us. I told Shahbaz Sharif may you find yourself in the similar situation one day,” he said.

“Tens of thousands of people have gathered here because Imran Khan is the victorious today,” said the KP chief minister who led a large number of people to the PTI rally which was taking place in Islamabad as part of Youm-e-Tashukkur.
