PML-Q President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain has censured the critics for calling Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto “beggars”, saying both were “begging” for the sake of the country.
In a statement, Shujaat chastised the opposition for terming Shehbaz and Bilawal as beggars.
“They [PM Shehbaz and FM Bilawal] are begging for the rehabilitation of flood victims and economic development,” he said.
“We will also participate with them in this good deed,” he added, asking the “critics” to take measures for the solution of people’s problems.
PM Shehbaz Sharif had co-hosted an international donor conference in Geneva along with UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres.
The conference brought together governments, leaders from the public and private sectors and civil society to support the people and the government of Pakistan to deal with the challenge of post-flood reconstruction and rehabilitation.
Pakistan secured over $10 billion in pledges from international financial institutions, donor agencies and development partners for the rehabilitation, recovery and reconstruction of flood-affected areas.
