Imran Khan-led government ‘illegal, incompetent’: Maryam Nawaz

[ad_1]

Pakistan’s Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz on Wednesday attacked the government led by Imran Khan, saying the implementation of the ” illegal and incompetent ” dispensation in the country was a ” story of destruction ” ‘.

Maryam, the daughter of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, made comments to the media after her appearance before Islamabad High Court in the Avenfield corruption case. The hearing of the case is adjourned until September 8.

An “illegal and incompetent” government had been imposed on the people, she was quoted as saying by the newspaper Express Tribune.

Never in the history of the country has there been such an incompetent government. The government’s performance is a story of destruction as there is lawlessness in Pakistan, she added.

Maryam, 47, said women were abused in the country “” everywhere “.

Maryam urged people to get rid of the government and said the government’s current process of accountability is political revenge.

Maryam ruled out reconciliation, saying one should not even hold talks with the government.

All parties, except the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, should unite and think about Pakistan’s welfare, she was quoted as saying by Geo TV.

She spoke about the return of Nawaz Sharif to Pakistan and said: ” Circumstances have changed a lot. Very soon you will see many things change. Nawaz Sharif returns to the country when it is necessary for him to do so. ” Sharif, 71, convicted in two corruption cases in Pakistan, has been living in London since November 2019, after the Lahore High Court gave him permission to travel abroad for four weeks for medical treatment.

His passport expired in February this year. The ruling Pakistani government in Tehreek-i-Insaf had previously rejected a request for a new diplomatic passport for him.

Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said Sharif’s passport would not be renewed following instructions from Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Pakistani Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry offered Sharif special documents to return to the country.

When he was not involved in a corruption case, a Supreme Court in Islamabad had declared him a proclaimed perpetrator.

At the Media Regulatory Authority, Maryam said the government is creating barriers for the media and the opposition, and the bill was a continuation of its policy aimed at censoring the media.
