GOVT CRITICISED: PML-N provincial president Amir Muqam has said that Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf leaders have been targeting politicians of rival parties instead of focusing their attention on bringing about the promised change in the country.

Talking to party workers during his visit to Razaar tehsil on Tuesday, he said that the PTI leadership failed to deliver and it had lost its direction.

Mr Muqam said that the only change so far introduced by the PTI leaders was the increase in prices of daily use commodities. He claimed that the policies adopted by the government had made it clear that the rulers were not interested in people’s welfare.
