Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan, in a reaction to the statements circulated the other day from BBC interview that PTI-led government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) didn’t fully implement local body system, denied the narrative, claiming that his statements were taken ‘out of context’.
The PTI chairman declared the performance of KP government as exemplary and impressive.
He took to Twitter and posted several tweets mentioning landmarks achieved by the provincial ruling party, while also claiming that KP government reduced poverty by 50 per cent, brought reforms in education and health sectors, and introduced the most modern local body system in the history.
“Better public schools & reformed health service in govt hospitals; health cards for the poor. Micro-hydel projects in remote areas providing cheap [electricity] for local [people]; environment-friendly #BillionTreeTsunami providing jobs to locals. A professional depoliticised police force which has created a more secure environment & has drawn investment into KP,” he wrote on Twitter.
While discussing the matter, PTI supremo condemned a private news channel and all journalists who misinform the public. He told that the ‘media godfather’ doesn’t believe in journalistic ethics, and, even national institutions, like judiciary and army, are not safe from it.
