ISLAMABAD:

Minister for Information Senator Shibli Faraz on Wednesday blamed Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz Vice-President Maryam Nawaz and Pakistan Peoples Party Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto for destroying Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM).

“If politics was based on family inheritance rather than merit then the outcome would be the same as is that of PDM today. The two newborn political heirs who did not stop themselves from pushing their elders are to blame for the destruction of this movement," the minister said taking to the microblogging website Twitter.

He went on to add that "Imran Khan will continue to build Pakistan whereas political opponents will continue to destroy their own parties."

The tweet came two days after the minister's previous tweet where he accused PDM's leaders of continuously changing their statements and returning home after being rejected by the people.

Last month, the minister formally addressed a press conference to deny any contact with PDM after PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz’s claimed that “sitting ministers” were contacting the opposition.
