Federal Minister for Railways Khawaja Saad Rafique, in a series of tweets on Monday, termed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) 100-day plan as a pack of lies.





Rafique takes a jibe at PTI's tall promises of job opportunities, housing schemes, forestation and the construction of 350 dams in the province.

He further criticised the PTI provincial government for its alleged failure to control polio in the province. The railway minister added that the provincial government gave up on fighting with dengue without even trying. Rafique further mocked the plan and said that 'rats' are eating out Imran's rule in the province.

On May 20, PTI unveiled its 100-day plan in a function at a local hotel. Transforming governance, strengthening federation, revitalising economic growth, revolutionising social services, ensuring national security and developing the agriculture sector are among the goals PTI hopes to achieve in its first 100 days after coming into power.

The event was attended by senior party leaders, including the PTI chief.

This plan, Imran said, outlined major decisions needed to be taken when PTI was at the peak of its power:

“This [plan] will set our direction and serve as a roadmap of our actions, ideology and policies,” Imran said, adding, “Now, PTI has valuable experience of governing a province – Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P). If we had formed the [federal] government in 2013, we would not have been adequately prepared,” he said.

“They are free to do whatever they want and not subject to accountability. They (PML-N) are prematurely scrambling to inaugurate the orange line for the [new] Islamabad airport. Did Nelson Mandela [run around] cutting any ribbons? Building motorways is hailed as a massive achievement. But if you build a nation, motorways will be built naturally,” he said.

He had further said that PML-N’s development plan was confined to projects offering greater ‘commissions’.
