Awami National Party President Asfandyar Wali Khan on Monday urged all political leaders to avoid criticism for the sake of criticism.
Addressing a public gathering in connection with by-election campaign in Peshawar on Monday‚ he said democracy allowed everyone to express his views but there should be limits.
He said PTI leaders in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa holding dual offices‚ while their Chairman Imran Khan had been criticising President Asif Zardari for holding dual office.
Asfandyar severally criticized Imran Khan and amused a party gathering by hurling some serious queries jocularly.
He said Imran Khan should tell him whether his pre-election promises were to be believed or what was happening after May 11 polls.
The ANP head sarcastically said that retaining party and ministerial portfolio in the same time was possible only in Khan’s ‘Naya Pakistan’. He said the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly speaker was holding the post of president of his party while the KP chief minister was general secretary of the PTI.
He said that during their government ANP leaders Mian Iftikhar Hussain and late Bashir Bilour used to visit bombing scenes. He said but the PTI ministers and leaders did not attend funeral prayers of their MPAs. He added that it was not witnessed in any other democracy of the world.
