Farrukh Habib terms PDM as a dead horse

Farrukh Habib terms PDM as a dead horse

Pakistan

Farrukh said that the PDM since its inception could not develop consensus on a single point.

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Minister of State for Information and Broadcasting Farrukh Habib on Tuesday said that Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) is a dead horse and failed attempts are made after every two months to revive this dead horse, Dunya News reported.

Farrukh Habib said that the multiparty opposition alliance (PDM) since its inception could not develop consensus on a single point. “PDM is a dead horse, it makes unsuccessful attempts to revive the movement after every one or two months,” he said in response to the PDM meeting held in Islamabad earlier in the day.

He said the PDM has no work to do, so, it arranges a meeting after every month. Farrukh said the government had no problem from PDM’s ‘modeling show’ and ‘cat walk’.

He asked the PDM leaders why they made a U-turn on the decision on en masse resignation from the Parliament.

He took a jibe at JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman and described him as the 12th player of Pakistan politics which ruined everything to satisfy his own desires. His desires seemed to be dying since 2018, he added.

He said the JUI-F chief should be held accountable for the foreign funding received by his party.

Those who were conspiring against the democratic system would never succeed, he said, adding that the entire nation was observing, who was pursuing the agenda of enemy in what way.

He said the Joint Services Pakistan Day Parade on March 23 and participation of high-level delegates by the friendly countries always strike the enemy.

Commenting on the use of Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs), Farrukh said it would ensure transparency in holding elections in a fair and transparent manner.
