ISLAMABAD:
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan has said the Chief Minister of Punjab Shehbaz Sharif’s on-going efforts to please Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa will go in vain as 2018 is the year of change for Pakistan.

“Nowadays, he [Shehbaz] seems in love with General Bajwa and apex judiciary. Make the efforts you want but your tricks will not work this time around,” Imran Khan said while addressing party activists gathered outside a membership camp at a market in neighbouring Rawalpindi.

Khan on Sunday visited several membership camps organised by local party leaders in Rawalpindi as part of on-going membership campaign. During his brief addresses to party workers at Pir Wadhai, Saddar and Commercial Market he strongly criticised the Punjab CM and his model of development.

Khan said Shehbaz is the biggest drama in Pakistan’s politics and is struggling to please army and judiciary to get some space.

“Do whatever you want to do. You will be unable to find job,” said the PTI chief asking his party members to make preparations for the general elections “which would wipe out PML-N’s very existence from Punjab”.


Imran further said that whenever independent investigations would be carried out into Punjab mega projects one would find the Punjab CM more corrupt than deposed PM Nawaz Sharif and Pakistan Peoples Party’s Asif Ali Zardari.

“I have been waiting for the 2018 polls for the last 22 years. Once in power, PTI will expose corruption of Shehbaz, his sons and other associates,” Khan said adding corruption was the biggest issue of Punjab.

He also said this was the year of change and PTI would make Pakistan a country envisioned by Muhammad Ali Jinnah.

The PTI chief stated the corruption committed by Nawaz and Zardari was the real cause of financial deterioration in Pakistan and that no country can progress without investment in public.

“We have rulers whose children live and do businesses abroad. It’s the public money which they stole. They became billionaire while on the other hand Pakistanis have plunged deeper into foreign debt,” he said.

Subsequently, Imran said he would announce his party’s future course of action by the end of April during a historic public rally in Lahore.
