Lahore: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz slammed Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan for his “super king” remarks about ex-Chief of Army Staff General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa. “If General Bajwa was ‘super king’ at that time, what were you, his servant?” said Maryam during her address to party leaders here.

Criticising Khan Maryam said that PTI Chief kept holding meetings with former Army Chief even after his government was toppled. “You earlier said that no one helped me as much as General (retd) Bajwa and today you say Qamar Javed Bajwa toppled my government,” she said.

According to Maryam, Khan lacked national economic plan and “Violence, bloodshed and turmoil” was his agenda. “I had already mentioned earlier that cypher issue was nothing more than mere fraud,” she added. Continuing her criticism she asked Imran how he could sleep well at night after lying so much. She said that everyone knew how PTI used religion for their political interests. Maryam said that taking U-turn meant lying. “Others were termed foreign agents under false narrative, and relations with US and West were severed,” she added.

She said that youth of Pakistan wasn’t incompetent like Khan. An organised campaign was led against opposing political powers under planned conspiracy, she claimed.

She stated that incumbent government had to answer for false narrative of PTI Chief. “He [Khan] fled after trapping people under guise of jobs. We [government] cannot give new jobs amid current economic situation,” she said.
