Information ministry should be audited, says PML-N leader

Nehal Hashmi hits back at Sharjeel Memon after Memon amplified his criticism over the Asghar Khan case.

KARACHI:

Nehal Hashmi, president of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Sindh, hit back at Sindh Information Minister Sharjeel Memon on Tuesday.

The outburst comes after Memon amplified his criticism of the Sharif brothers after the Supreme Court’s ruling in the Asghar Khan case. At the Karachi Press Club, Hashmi said that no internal audit of the information ministry had ever been performed, claiming that “without taking commission, the government does not place any advertisement in the electronic and print media.”
