Leader of Opposition in the National Assembly Khursheed Shah has said the Jewish lobby is spreading terrorism in the garb of Islam while propagators of terrorism have now become superpowers.
Shah was speaking on Wednesday at District Bar Association and later at the residence of the PPP Swat chapter’s President Shamsher Ali.
Khursheed Shah appeals to army chief to ‘let the system function’
He said there would not be any need for Operation Zarb-e-Azb, if the former military chief General Parvez Kayani had continued the anti-terror drive started during the former PPP government.
The opposition leader said his party had told PM Nawaz Sharif that motorways and other such projects could not eliminate poverty, adding that the newly announced multi-billion-rupee Kissan Relief Package was also a deceiving tactic. “The farmers in the country are suffering from starvation but the incumbent government has increased the per bag price of fertiliser by Rs45,” he said.
