There will be no NRO whatever approach they make to save their skin.
RAWALPINDI (Dunya News) – Prime Minister Imran Khan on Wednesday said that country is facing crisis due to the corruption.
Addressing an inauguration ceremony of Sir Syed Express train at Rawalpindi Railway station on Wednesday, he said, while reiterating his stance of not giving
National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) to anyone, that no one in the past had even tried to hold rulers accountable.
Imran Khan said that there would be no concession for the looters and plunderers. “There will be no NRO whatever approach they make to save their skin. I will make them answerable,” he said.
He said if today, both Zardari and Nawaz Sharif brought back the looted money, the rupee would be strengthened, easing the pressure of dollar.
The prime minister said during last decade, the two successive governments of PPP and PML-N had burdened the country with Rs30,000 billion debt which was around Rs6000 billion ten years back.
Two houses of Sharif and Zardari had become billionaires while the nation suffered, he added.
Khan strongly rebuffed the opposition’s claims of revengeful policy towards them, adding that when he had taken up the Panama case in the Supreme Court, he was made a victim of vindictive policy by the previous rulers who had registered 32 FIRs against him and filed six cases in the Election Commission of Pakistan. “That can be called as vengeful approach by the PML-N government against him,” he added.
He said that he had answered all the questions at the Supreme Court who had declared him as ‘sadiq’ and ‘amin’. “I have not escaped to London but replied to every question,” he added.
