PESHAWAR: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz has described the 100 days plan of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf as eyewash and asked the people to judge the difference between words and deeds of PTI chief from his 90 days agenda he had announced soon after coming into power in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in 2013.

Speaking at a press conference at Peshawar Press Club on Sunday, PML-N provincial president Amir Muqam said that PTI had announced plan for the first 100 days if it got power, but Imran Khan was not sincere to bring real change in the fate of people. He said that the PTI leadership had announced a similar plan of 90 days when it formed government in KP, but it failed to materialise its commitments even in five years.

He said that the PTI chief was making tall claims while speaking to people of other provinces, but he could not repeat his words in Peshawar because the people knew well about the failure of his provincial government which had failed to construct a single mega project of Bus Rapid Transit.

He said that the entire Peshawar roads infrastructure was turned into ruins in the name of BRT, thus making lives of the citizens miserable. Japan had given pink buses to the provincial government for Abbottabad and Mardan, he said and alleged that Chief Minister Pervez Khattak was in a hurry to run them on the incomplete BRT route in violation of the plan.

Mr Muqam asked the PTI leadership to admit failure and follow Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif who had completed many mega projects within a short span of time.
