Amid ongoing protests by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in different areas of Punjab, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif asked incarcerated party founder Imran Khan to learn humility and refrain from making tall claims.
“You reap what you sow,” the three-time prime minister said to jailed PTI founder while addressing a ceremony related to “Apna Ghar Apni Chat” Scheme.
Without naming the PTI, the ruling party president said the ruling party of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was not interested in the development of the province.
“They come Punjab with tear gas shells,” the PML-N chief said hinting at PTI protesters.
Nawaz also asked which of the “tall promises” the PTI had fulfilled. “Their performance is zero and they stage protest whenever they get a chance,” he added.
“I think such elements should be dealt with strictly.”
Moreover, the former premier also expressed disappointment with his supporters and voters, stating that they never raised their voice against his ouster from power in 2017.
“You never asked that so many good things are taking so why Nawaz Sharif is being removed [from power],” the PML-N chief said adding that proud and dignified nations always raise their voices against any injustice.
Recalling the Panama scandal that led to the ouster of the ex-premier, Nawaz lamented that the then Supreme Court judges disqualified him from holding public office merely for not taking salary from his son.
