JHELUM: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry on Sunday ruled out any compromise on accountability saying that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) was voted to power for getting back the stolen national wealth from the looters and plunderers.

Addressing a ceremony in Jhelum, he said that accountability is on top of the PTI’s manifesto and if the government failed to fulfil this promise, there will be no justification for it to remain in power.

Fawad Chaudhry said that no one will be given any National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) as it is the government’s responsibility to bring all those involved in corruption to justice.

He said that the loans taken during the last 10 years were not spent on the welfare of masses, rather transferred to personal accounts of the rulers.

The minister said that high inflation and unemployment in the country are the direct outcomes of the loot and plunder of the previous two regimes.

About the alliance of opposition, Fawad Chaudhry said that the opposition leaders are crying hoarse that democracy is in danger only because their own political future is at stake.
