HARIPUR:
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief Imran Khan and his party MPAs have been accused of misleading the electorate through his slogan for change.
The allegations were levelled by former minister for higher education Qazi Muhammad Asad Khan.
Disgruntled members to take PTI to US courts
He expressed these views while speaking at a reception hosted in by PML-N activist Jehangir Ahmed in Haripur on Monday evening.
“[Imran’s tactics] are tantamount to playing with the emotions of the people of Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa,” he added. “Corruption, deterioration in law and order and discrimination in the distribution of the development budget continue unabated in the province.” About Haripur district, Qazi Muhammad Asad said PTI was running the district through a de facto minister, who was disqualified for life under Articles 62 and 63 of the Constitution.
Speaking about former communication and works minister Yousuf Ayub Khan, he said Imran has introduced “an interesting model of governance”. “A man who was de-seated and disqualified has been announcing and inaugurating development schemes,” he added.
He accused Yousuf Ayub of undermining government offices and employees for his own political motives. “Those who do not follow his instructions are being threatened and transferred to other districts and remote areas,” he said.
Will not accuse but arrest the corrupt when in power, Imran tells Nawaz
Qazi Muhammad Asad said engineering university project for Haripur is not being commissioned. “On the contrary, a PTI MPA and his brother are fooling the people of Haripur over the construction of a new block of Haripur University near Mang,” he said. “The project is also being funded by Austrian College of Applied Sciences.”
Qazi Muhammad Asad said PTI was facing disintegration not only at central and provincial level but also at district level owing to ineffective policies.
He predicted the PTI-led provincial government was inching toward its collapse due to the nature of its policies.
