Khawaja Asif sees PM Imran taking a U-turn on his U-turn statement soon

Statement comes in the wake of premier Khan defending himself against opposition’s allegation of taking U-turns

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Khawaja Asif on Saturday said that it is only a matter of time before Prime Minister Imran Khan will backtrack on his 'U-turn' statement.

The former defence minister hit out at the country's premier on micro-blogging site, Twitter, saying that,"Imran Khan will backtrack from his U-turn statement, just wait and watch it's only a matter of time."

عمران خان یو ٹرن والے بیان پہ بھی یو ٹرن لے گا۔ انتظار فرمائیں زیادہ دیر نھیں لگے گی

The statement comes in the wake PM Imran defending himself against the opposition’s allegation of taking 'U-turns', saying that the person who did not take decisions according to the situation was not a true leader.



While talking to columnists at the Prime Minister Office on Friday, Imran said that after completing the first 100 days in office, the government would unveil an all-inclusive and comprehensive programme for the country, covering education, health, poverty reduction and other sectors.

“One who doesn’t take decisions according to the demand of the situation is not a true leader. [Adolf] Hitler and Napoleon [Bonaparte] would not have suffered losses if they had taken U-turns,” he said.

However, referring to former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, Imran said Sharif did not take a U-turn in court but he lied in the National Assembly.
