Quetta incident report
Not roads but investing in public is real progress: Imran
ISLAMABAD : Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) on Sunday demanded the resignation of Interior Minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan over the Quetta incident report.
While talking to media, Shah Mehmood Qureshi accused Nisar of attacking Supreme Court through his aggressive press conference and sought answers of various questions.
“PTI’s youth convention was baton charged despite the fact that the party had been granted permission for it,” he said.
He questioned that how the meeting of banned organization was held in Islamabad even though section-144 was imposed in the city.
“Who gave permission to banned outfit members to sit in the meeting? What will be the strategy regarding terror cases after the conclusion of 21st amendment and military courts?” he asked.
Shah Mehmood Qureshi pronounced that if Prime Minister Nawaz Sahrif is standing by his statement given in National Assembly then he should take back Qatari prince’s letter from SC and dispel this ambiguity after coming in the House.
Imran Khan will also come to National Assembly if PM Nawaz arrives there to answer the pending questions, he added.
Mean while Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Imran Khan has said that nations can only progress if the public money is spent on them and the same law is applicable on both poor and rich.
Addressing a gathering of students at the National University of Modern Languages (NUML) here, Imran said it was unfortunate that around 25 million children were not imparted school education in Pakistan whereas educational institutions had become money-making factories.
Imran said projects like the Metro bus and orange trains were not the indicators of a nation’s prosperity but they make progress only when the governments spend on their welfare.
Imran said it was regretful that all the governments, which came to power after independence in 1947, didn’t focus on investment in the country due to which a mindset came into being that development projects were a reflection of national prosperity.
He said the country’s progress was linked to investment on public, particularly in the sector of education.
The PTI chairman said a champion always remained a champion, whether the situation favoured him or not. While he was a cricketer, Imran said he underwent troubled times on many occasions but he never gave up the hope and effort. He said success comes to those who strive for it and never fear defeat.
Imran said NUML was an institution of the Oxford University stature and it would be turned into a knowledge city, capable of changing the entire country. He also said he would focus on NUML after the Panama case was resolved.
