“Before you give any 100-day plan, the public wants accountability for the 90-day plan you [PTI Chairman Imran Khan] gave ahead of the 2013 general elections,” PML-N Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P) president Amir Muqam asked while addressing a news conference at the party secretariat on Sunday.

He stated that before going to the polls in 2013, the PTI gave a 90-day plan to end corruption, nepotism and illegal practices along with a host of other tall claims. These, he said, need to be probed and that PTI Chairman Imran Khan needs to be asked why he failed to deliver on those promises. “You [Imran] must tell people how much has the PTI invested in the youth, education, health, and infrastructure,” Muqam asked, adding that adding PTI’s own Ehtisab Commission had folded.
“I request all those who have been attending Imran’s public gatherings to at least visit K-P once and see the change PTI claims to have brought.”
While talking about the recent United Nation Development Programme (UNDP) report, Muqam, who is also a cabinet member and the prime minister’s advisor, stated that the report has shown the public the true picture of K-P. He said that the PTI government has been claiming to have changed things around in the province, but international organizations have shared with the public the ground realities, stating that he wished PTI workers from other provinces visit K-P before the general elections.
“Let them come here, see what has the PTI done to the province by digging up the provincial capital in the name of what they [PTI] called a ‘Jangla Bus’ and then decide who to vote for in the next general elections,” Muqam urged PTI voters.
