“Donate the skins to Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital after making the sacrifices,” he added.
He slammed Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif for not meeting Kashmir leadership in his trip to New Delhi last month.
“Nawaz Sharif met Shabana Azmi, Heema Malini but not Kashmiri leaders in India, he didn’t even utter the work K during meeting with incumbent Prime Minister Modi fearing it will hint Kashmir,” he alleged.
He termed Federal Finance Minister Ishaq Dar ‘Munshi’ (cashier) and ‘money launderer’ saying that Dar presented the budget that has nothing for the poor.
He claimed that Rs 400 billion revolving credit was not shown in the budget.
He continued to level allegations against the PMLN government, criticizing Defence Minister Khawaja Asif, AML chief claimed that Asif sold 25 billion dollar worth contracts in Neelam and Jehlum without proper paperwork.
“I am accusing you in your city,” he added while addressing Defence Minister.
He further claimed that Karachi styled extortion has reached Islamabad.
“I make this speech everyday, 365 days of the year. I am only with Imran Khan because this is the country where army is targeted, DG ISI is presented as killer, the country where judges are being bought, the country where nepotism prevails,” he said.
“I have requested Imran Khan as well but the decision will be taken by his core committee, but I personally believe that the poor are dying. Imran Khan you are a hope, don’t break people’s hope, these people are out on the streets and are not ready to go back.”
He urged Imran Khan to unite the opposition under PTI banner and prepare movement against the government to send ‘these people to jail.’
“There will be sacrifice before Eid of sacrifice, adding that the skins be donated to Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital,” he added.
