Vawda censures newly elected govt

KARACHI:

Former senator Faisal Vawda on Saturday issued a sharp rebuke against the newly elected government, denouncing it as a “manifestation of nepotism”.

“You are seeing more ‘funerals of democracy in this nepotism’,” he said while talking to a private news channel.

Censuring the new representatives, the former senator questioned why elections were not held in Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa last year, in violation of the law and Constitution, after the dissolution of both assemblies in these provinces. “What are the champions of Constitution and law doing here?” he asked.
Vawda said “this failed and incompetent government” could not control prices of essential commodities during Ramazan and was not capable of providing relief to the common man. “So how will this incompetent government perform in future?”

He further questioned who had suspended the sentences of both the sons of Nawaz Sharif.
He said rigging in 2018 elections was carried out in an “artistic, organized and classic manner” whereas this time it was done in a “blatant” style.
