–Says PML-N ready for elections
GUJRANWALA
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senior vice president and Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz flayed on Friday Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan, saying he was kowtowing to the United States after causing uproar over the US conspiracy behind his ouster.
Addressing the convention in Gujranwala she termed ‘PML-N stronghold’, Maryam Nawaz said that Imran Khan is such a “hypocrite” and “liar” that he cannot even stick to a single statement for long and never even accepts his basic failures.
“When he lost power, he accused the United States and cited that diplomatic cypher was the reason behind his ouster, now he is begging the US for pardon. Yesterday, he said that he is ending the Jail Bharo Tehreek (court arrest movement) forgetting that the movement didn’t even start, it was a failure,” said Maryam Nawaz Sharif.
Maryam Nawaz maintained that a court arrest movement cannot succeed when the leader himself is hiding in his home “Zamanat (bail) Park”. She reminded the audience of today’s alleged audio leak of a conversation between PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry and his brother lawyer Faisal Chaudhry and said that PTI is habitual of setting up everything in their favour and now they are “bring trucks outside courts”.
She also brought a toy truck with her and said the now people should only be looking at truck to know that she is talking about PTI and Imran Khan, suggesting that PTI should change their electoral symbol to truck. “We will puncture all four tyres of this truck and will send it home,” Maryam Nawaz told the crowd.
She also criticized the judiciary and said that whenever she shows the institution the mirror, she is accused of contempt of court but no contempt occurs when Nawaz Sharif was disqualified “just for not receiving a salary?”.
“There is no contempt of court, no insult of judiciary when a man (Imran Khan) gets clean chit from court despite the fact that he lied on his nomination form? despite the fact that he hid his daughter. When will you (judiciary) punish him?” she asked.
Maryam Nawaz thanked the party workers of Gujranwala for showing up in huge numbers in the convention and said that if someone has any doubt that PML-N isn’t popular among youth, he or she can come and see this huge rally.
Schooling former Punjab chief minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi, Ms Nawaz said, “Imran handed over the biggest portfolio within his party to the Punjab’s biggest thief.” She asked the people of Gujranwala to get ready for the elections and extend their support to the PML-N.
The PML-N Chief Organiser has also declared that her party was ready to participate in the elections, stating that she has already completed visits to half of Punjab. She expressed confidence in PML-N’s chances of a “thumping victory” in the elections and urged equal opportunities for all participants.
Nawaz also called for justice for PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif, stating that a proven culprit and thief was roaming free while the hands of PML-N were being tightened. She taunted Imran’s recent questioning of the increasing dollar-rupee parity ratio, stating that a person imposed after the “Panama Conspiracy” was questioning the destruction of the economy.
The PML-N leader has urged Imran’s facilitators to desist from reviving him, as she believed he had already finished politically. She also criticized his (Imran’s) decision to leave the assemblies in April and later implore for the restoration of assembly memberships of his lawmakers, calling his decisions that of a “mentally disturbed person”.
