Opposition should not hide behind production orders: Ali Muhammad Khan
Opposition should not hide behind production orders: Ali Muhammad Khan.
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs Ali Muhammad Khan on Tuesday said the opposition should not hide behind production orders.
While addressing the National Assembly session, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader said people want accountability as country’s resources were consumed without any check and balance in the past.
Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s 20 London visits out of 24, and erstwhile president Asif Ali Zardari’s 48 Dubai visits out of 51 were private and their expenses were paid by public, he said.
"It is shameful that Rs7 crore rupees of public money were spent on Umrah of the former premier. An issue has been raised in England that a parliamentarian was involved in embezzling earthquake funds.
“It apparently looks like Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Khawaja Asif has come to Pakistan for the first time and served as defence minister in his dreams. You should hold accountability of your leader if you have the guts.
“I am willing to be held accountable of my ten-month tenure and the opposition should do the same for its 35-40 years in power.
“Dictators violated the constitution time and again, and hide and seek continued between the opposition and the democracy in past forty years.”
