PTI chief stands exposed: Marriyum

Minister says government’s focus was on reducing the prices of flour, cooking oil, wheat and other edible items

ISLAMABAD:

Information Minister Marriyum Aurangzeb on Wednesday said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairperson stood exposed for his “treachery and enmity towards Pakistan” for his “anti-state agenda at the behest of his foreign masters”.

“He is least concerned about the national interests, particularly the sensitivity of defence and economic issues,” she said while addressing a news conference.

The minister said the PTI chief was begging the United States to ban military aid to Pakistan, which manifested his anti-state mindset.

She said he was not pursuing a political agenda rather he was “toeing the line of his foreign masters who wanted to see Pakistan as a failed state”.

The information minister said that the PTI chief was hatching conspiracies against the country under a well-planned strategy by brainwashing the youth with the help artificial intelligence using foreign funds.

Once the brainwashing of youth was completed, she said, his facilitators resorted to accomplish his anti-state missions by executing the conspiracies and the May 9 tragedy was a case study in that regard.

Minister Marriyum said he might think that he could mislead the world while speaking to foreign media with two flags in the background.

The government’s focus was on reducing the prices of flour, cooking oil, wheat and other edible items, she added.

Moreover, she said, a major uplift programme for the youth would also be announced in the coming budget.
