Cheema slams PML-N over POL price hike

Punjab CM's aide calls out rival party for its 'hypocrisy'

LAHORE:

Adviser to Punjab Chief Minister on Information Umer Sarfraz Cheema has said that ‘Calibri Font Queen’ was showing extreme hypocrisy by shedding crocodile tears over the increase in petrol prices.

In a statement issued on Tuesday, Cheema said “the hypocritical N League follows a policy of extreme hypocrisy; one openly hurls threats while the other engages in sycophancy”.

“If the ‘Calibri Font Queen’ is sincere with the nation, then she should work to bring the looted wealth back to Pakistan,” he said.

He regretted that Nawaz Sharif was such a coward and weakling character who always flees from the country in an hour of trial while leaving hapless workers alone.

“It is an irony of circumstances that fugitive Nawaz Sharif’s guarantor Shehbaz Sharif is also on bail,” he added. “Nawaz Sharif is a convicted criminal as he was caught stealing the national kitty.” He cannot return without an NRO, he declared. Meanwhile, the court jesters of the house of Sharifs have PhDs in lies, propaganda and hypocrisy, he remarked.

If the Sharif-Zardari duo had not conspired while acting as fifth columnists of international powers, Punjab would have been one step ahead in development and prosperity, he stressed. Despite the conspiracy of the PML-N, Punjab has once again gone on the path of development. He said PML-N’s courtiers should keep crying as the mission of public service will continue in Punjab.

The nation is not ready to accept corrupt agents of international powers and the narrative of Imran Khan about national honor and self-reliance has won the hearts of the nation.
