Person who looted Rs1500bn is PAC chairman: Fawad Ch

Cabinet will wait for SC’s written verdict for removal of names from ECL: Chaudhry

 

 

ISLAMABAD, FEB 8(DNA) -– Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fwad Chaudhry on Friday said that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif and former president Asif Ali Zardari have become the story of past and they both have no political status.

 

Addressing a ceremony in Islamabad on Frida, he said that those who were involved in stealing 15 hens are serving their jail term while a person who stole Rs1500 billion has become Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chairman, adding that this is the failure of system.

 

The minister said that Prime Minister Imran Khan and later former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto have played a key role in the politics of the country.

 

“Our movement was the movement for the middle class,” he said and added Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has raised the issues of middle class and youngsters.

 

“The sit-in lead by Imran Khan gave an alternative message to youth and that was the laying stone of a Naya Pakistan,” he said. “PTI’s 2014 sit-in laid foundation stone of Naya Pakistan,” he added.

 

Fawad Ch went on to say that we have started accountability for the first time and in the next phase the entire system will be changed.

 

He said: “It is unfortunate that government is not in a position to offer any relief to the middle class that brought PTI to power, due to budgetary constraints. The country has been riddled numerous problems, including the huge debt burden left by previous governments.”=DNA
