Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid President slams Imran Khan govt over Nawaz Sharif issue
Islamabad: Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain slammed PM Imran Khan-led government over its moves taken to bring back former PM Nawaz Sharif and said it should focus on issues related to public importance.
“This [bring back Sharif] is a futile exercise,” the former prime minister and veteran politician said in a statement as quoted by The Express Tribune.
The PML-N supremo has been living in London in self-exile ever since he was allowed by a court to leave the country for medical treatment on a four-week bail.
Though he has repeatedly pledged to come back, he never indicated when he planned to return, the Pakistani newspaper reported.
Hussain said, “Come what may, Sharif will never return to the country to stand trial in court.”
“It would have been a different scenario if his party workers had insisted him to come,” he said, adding that “it is ridiculous that PTI’s members talk about his return.”
Cautioning the government, he said if the government does not work on important issues, then the country will be at stake as this is the “year of deliverance”.
“If any leader or party hands out a positive plan to decrease inflation, I will ask my members to listen to them,” he added.
