RAWALPINDI: Federal Minister for Aviation Ghulam Sarwar Khan on Saturday said Nawaz Sharif wanted political instability that was why he made statements against the national institutions.

“The PTI government will not give any relief to the persons convicted in corruption cases and it was taking all steps to bring back Nawaz Sharif to make him accountable,” he said.

Speaking at a news conference, he said that the PML-N leaders and workers should question their supreme leader that why he had made such a statement and part their ways with Nawaz Sharif.

The minister lashed out at three-time former prime minister Nawaz Sharif and his family for, what he said, maligning the institutions just to hide his sins.

He said the security forces had arrested the Indian spy Kulbhushan Jadhav and despite having all evidence, Nawaz Sharif did not condemn subversive activities of India in Pakistan.

“Nawaz Sharif’s medical board should be challenged and the report should be investigated,” the minister said.

The minister also condemned Maulana Fazlur Rehman and said that he (Maulana) was doing politics on children of Madaris (seminaries).

“The country’s facing economic crisis, inflation and unemployment, which could not be solved without political stability,” he maintained.

He said that opposition’s so called alliance would not stop the government from serving the people as it was working on development projects. He said that people had been fed up with the corrupt elements.

“No one is paying attention to the voice of the opposition because everyone knows its politics,” he said.

Earlier, Federal Minister for Aviation Ghulam Sarwar Khan inaugurated development projects at Union Council Kotha Kalan, Rawalpindi, including a new block in a local school.

He also inaugurated the construction work of Chaudhry Mohabbat Khan Road and Gulraiz Road.

MPA Chaudhry Amjad Mahmood and other party leaders of the area were also present on the occasion.
