ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and candidate for NA-54 Asad Umar said that corrupt rulers and the politicians tainted the image of the country while upcoming general elections are decisive for the nation’s fate.
Addressing a public gathering here at the F-11 Markaz, he said that people were facing severe water, electricity shortage, economic crisis and other pressing issues and the former government basked in the glory of their so-called development in the country.
He said that no economic expertise was required to understand the current economic scenario where no sustainable improvement can be seen. He believed that the current social setup depicts a state of lawlessness while the sectarian violence established its roots in the society due to the flaw of institutions enforcing law.
Asad Umar said that the general elections 2018 were not important for his successful contest rather his party chief Imran Khan to finish the ‘status quo’ in the country. He claimed that no corruption and nepotism allegations were charged against the PTI government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Imran Khan.
He said that a budget of Rs 2,000 billion was spent by the provincial government. He vowed to his electorate to redress all their grievances regarding development in their constituency which was ignored by their former representatives. Speaking on the occasion, Al Hussain Trust President Allama Syed Zafar Abbas Kazmi assured Asad Umar for his complete support.
“Our country required sincere leadership in the current scenario to end its crisis,” he said and expressed that Asad Umar would not only play his role to resolve local but also the national issues. He also fastened ‘Imam Zamin’ on Asad Umar’s arm for his success in the 2018 general elections.
