‘Opposition parties have no agenda’

Buzdar said opposition parties have no agenda, they are trying to hoodwink people through criticism for the sake of it

LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister Sardar Usman Buzdar said that opposition parties have no agenda and they are trying to hoodwink the people through criticism for the sake of criticism. He expressed these views in a statement issued on Monday.

He said that the opposition should realise that the people cannot be fooled through lies. He maintained that corruption was at its peak during the tenure of the previous rulers and national resources were wasted mercilessly on wrong projects.

Previous rulers prioritised their personal interests instead of national interest. Those who enjoyed at the expense of the public’s money cannot be leaders, he said. He expressed that the government is working with full commitment and passion to save the country from difficult circumstances. The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) government is fully focused on providing necessary facilities to the people and unprecedented steps have been taken for citizen’s welfare.

He said that the past governments ignored the problems of the people and added that they are responsible for the deteriorating economic conditions. The prime minister and his team have taken solid steps to improve the economy. The journey of public service will not halt and will continue, the chief minister concluded.
