PML-N leader Shaza Fatima Khawaja has said that the PTI would “ensure that it keeps causing political instability” until it forms a government.

Reacting to the PTI’s call for protests against alleged rigging in Feb 8 polls, Shaza said the PTI “would rather see the country go down (God forbid) but not accept defeat”.

Further assailing the PTI, the PML-N leader said, “When you give them the driving seat (government), they deliberately take the country to the brink of default and keep destroying the social structure with a combination of malafide, corrupt practices and incompetence.”
