Maryam Nawaz lambastes PTI saying, “Every day the masses are hit with an inflation storm”

Maryam Nawaz

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) vice-president Maryam Nawaz has said that the Opposition is adamant on its stance despite the incumbent government “begging” for cooperation.

Maryam Nawaz, while commenting to media officials after a joint meeting of the party’s parliamentary groups at the August House on Monday said, “They will not be given an NRO.”

“You will be shocked to know the details of the talks between the Opposition and PTI government,” she emphasised.

Earlier today, Maryam had chaired the parliamentary groups meeting in the absence of Opposition Leader Shahbaz Sharif and parliamentary groups leader Khawaja Asif – both are currently in prison over a National Accountability Bureau (NAB) investigation.

The meeting was attended by top PML-N leaders including former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, Ahsan Iqbal, and Raja Zafar ul Haq. To show solidarity with Shahbaz Sharif and Khawaja Asif, their pictures were been placed on chairs.

Maryam then criticized the PTI government for its performance, stressing that the Opposition did not have to inform people of the government’s failures as they were there for everyone to see. “Every day the masses are hit with an inflation storm.”

She added that the country had not witnessed as many failures in the 73 years since it came into existence as it did in the last two and a half years of the Imran Khan-led government.

“Despite your tactics you’ll have to go home”, Maryam sneers at PM Imran

Maryam Nawaz sneers at PM Imran

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz has on Thursday asked the government why it “changed its strategy” if it is unaffected by the PDM rallies.

While addressing a press conference in Lahore, Maryam Nawaz said, “If you are not affected by PDM jalsas, as you say, then why is there an emergency to hold elections — and this has never happened in Pakistan’s history.”

“Even if the government holds early Senate elections, it “cannot save itself”, and it “will be going home,” added the PML-N leader.

She further blamed Prime Minister Imran Khan for “destroying” national institutions by dragging them into politics for his own interests.

“You became a self-proclaimed FIA (Federal Investigation Agency) chairman, you became a self-proclaimed FBR (Federal Board of Revenue) chairman, and now you want to become the chairman of the election commission,” Maryam said.

Referring to the PTI government, she added, “They have understood that they have limited days in office […] Despite your tactics, you will have to go home.”

Maryam said that the prime minister was making the Supreme Court “controversial” by involving it in the matter of introducing the “show of hands” method for Senate elections.

The PML-N leader said that she was not against “show of hands”; however, Maryam claimed that the motive behind the government’s move “was not transparent”.

We will hear that rigging took place although the votes and voting results totally depend upon the Gilgit-Baltistan people, the minister added.

He said that the PTI government has entered its third year with exemplary efforts, whereas, the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) has unclear and invisible roles in the development of Pakistan.
