Bilawal tried to attribute PPP's corruption to PTI: Faisal Vawda

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Federal Minister for Water Resources Faisal Vawda has termed Bilawal Bhutto’s report on K-Electric a damning indictment of PPP’s own corruption, which he tried to falsely attribute to PTI.

Addressing the National Assembly session, Faisal Vawda said that PPP cannot accuse us of incompetence or corruption when they themselves appointed the officers and Managing Directors.

He said that the FIA report shown by Bilawal Zardari yesterday is a charge sheet against PPP. He brushed aside Bilawal’s accusation of Imran Khan being friends with the owner of Abraaj Group, asking why he was being given benefits by the PPP government. He said that PTI’s government is not responsible for the past twenty years of corruption.

Federal Minister Faisal Vawda challenged the opposition to a televised debate on the economy with three representatives from each side, to inform the public of ground realities.

Federal Minister for Communications Murad Saeed also addressed the assembly session. He said that the present government has started work on Bhasha Dam while “Aristotles” of the previous government keep on claiming they envisioned the project.

He said that we have restored the dignity of the Pakistani passport. Pakistan’s stock market has become one of the best performing markets in the world and according to an SBP report, reserves have increased by $3.2 billion. He said that the PTI government has repaid Rs 5,000 billion of debt taken by the previous government.
