ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Thursday took a jibe at Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif, likening his latest statement regarding meeting Chief of Army Staff (COAS) General Qamar Javed Bajwa to a job application.
“Shehbaz Sharif’s sudden praise for the COAS sounded more like a job application!” the PTI chairman tweeted.

His comments come a day after the Punjab chief minister said the chief of army staff is a “professional and straightforward man”.
The PML-N president had said that Bajwa’s services for the country should be fully lauded, adding that “we jointly have to strengthen the national defence”.
“The immortal sacrifices rendered by the armed forces of Pakistan for the defence of the country and elimination of terrorism and fanaticism should be appreciated from the core of the hearts. These priceless sacrifices will not be wasted,” Shehbaz had stated.
