System is being damaged beyond repair: Shehbaz

LAHORE/ISLAMABAD, Nov 28 (SABAH): Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President and Leader of the Opposition in National Assembly Mian Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif has said that given deepening governance mess that is the outcome of PTI’s flawed policies and corrupt practices, the crisis of governance is fast turning into crisis of State.

In a statement issued on Sunday on twitter, Shehbaz Sharif said that the system is being damaged beyond repair, public is outraged and PM is living in a bubble of his own miles away from reality.

Meanwhile PML-N Secretary General and former interior minister Ahsan Iqbal Chaudhry in an interview with a private TV channel said that it looks that the government has given an open permission to mafias and they could loot the money of masses according to their own will and no one will ask them.

He said that in Pakistan’s electoral system we did not need the Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) and change in any law, adding that we only need single reform that our state institutions should become impartial as they are property of all of us and they could not link with any particular party and whenever they did this in past it cause harm to the country and themselves too.

Ahsan Iqbal said that in Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif’s case, the audio of former chief justice of Pakistan justice (retd) Mian Saqib Nisar is not first and final evidence, adding the former chief judge of the Gilgit-Baltistan Rana Muhammad Shamim has given undertaking on the oath of the Holy Quran against Mian Saqib Nisar, adding that it is the responsibility of the court to summon both of them and decide the matter who is speaking truth and who is speaking lie. He said that the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) is successfully moving towards achieving its goal, adding that if the level playing filed was provided then the government would have faced defeat during the joint session of the parliament.

Ahsan Iqbal said that it is wrong to say that the government inherited the price spiral, adding that during the PML-N era the price spiral was at four to five percent which has reached nine to 10 percent during the tenure of current government
