ISLAMABAD (APP) - Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Attaullah Tarar on Saturday questioned the credibility of founders of the newly launched political party named as Awam Pakistan.
The minister, reacting to their presser held at the launching ceremony, said it was nothing but a gathering of investors who had billions of rupee in their possession.
The presser was a repeat telecast of the old narrative that was “full of contradictions”, he maintained.
Referring to former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and ex-finance minister Miftah Ismail, he asked how could a person without “loyalty” could do the “politics of ethics”.
Ironically, those who deliverd “speeches with full of contradictions” had remained in the power and enjoyed perks and privileges in the past, Tarar noted.
The minister said the public would ask them why they were silent while being in the highest offices of the country. Why the announcements made today were not implemented by them while being in the offices of the prime minister and minister of finance and petroleum, he questioned.

“On the one hand, they say that power is not their destination and at the same time they also declare themselves as the Messiah,” Tarar wondered.
He said that PML-N government is transforming the lives of people by achieving major development milestones.
