After the Pakistan Democratic Movement’s (PDM) first political show in Gujranwala, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) government hits back at the Opposition.
PML-N vice-president Maryam Nawaz, PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, and JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman were present at the PDM jalsa.
Reacting to the protest, Federal Minister on Information and Broadcasting Shibli Faraz said that the formation of the PDM is proof that only Prime Minister Imran Khan is standing tall against the status quo.
“Imran Khan and the people are on one side and the corrupt mafia is on the other side,” the minister wrote on Twitter.
گوجرانوالہ کا جلسہ اور پی ڈی ایم کی تشکیل اس بات کا ثبوت ہے کہ اسٹیٹس کو کے خلاف صرف عمران خان میدان میں کھڑا ہے۔عمران خان اور عوام ایک طرف اور کرپٹ مافیا دوسری طرف کھڑا ہے۔

Moreover, Federal Minister on Science and technology Fawad Chaudhry took a jibe at the new alliance of opposition political parties sharing a picture of him along with other PTI ministers.
“Watching Cricket Highlights #Relaxing #BechariOpposition,” the minister said in a tweet.

On the other hand, SAPM on Human Resource Development Zulfi Bukhari severely rebuked PPP Chairman Bilawal for what he referred to as the Bhutto scion’s “filthy attacks” during the PDM jalsa.
He also termed Bilawal’s speeches and accusations as “new low and classlessness”.
“Don’t blame Bilawal… if his parents didn’t make money off massive corruption he’d still be selling tickets like daddy at a cinema today. That’s the lineage he’s shown today with all his lies & filthy attacks,” the minister lambasted in a tweet.
A new low & classlessness!
