Rana Sanaullah urges PTI shun riotous agenda, resolve issues politically
ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) – Minister for Interior Rana Sanaullah on Tuesday urged Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) to shun riotous agenda and sit with other political parties to reach political solution.
Addressing a press conference in Islamabad on Tuesday, he said that unfortunately, a certain section has become a victim of former prime minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan’s misguidance as he [Imran Khan] is a victim of madness and misguidance which started with 7 to 8,000 people.
The minister said that the PTI chairman is claiming of bringing sea of people, adding that the people of Lahore have completely rejected the march of fitna, while only 3 to 4,000 people have been left until the march reached Gujranwala.
Taking a dig at Imran Khan, Rana Sanaullah said that the PTI chairman is using abusive language in his speeches during the march, adding that people won’t be betrayed by your madness.
“An investigation is being carried out into Ehsaas program and you all will be caught red-handed,” the minister said and added 8,000 families had been sent money through Ehsaas program during the elections.
The minister said the politics of the PTI leader, whose ugly face had been unmasked by Gandapur’s audio leaks, was aimed at mongering hate and dividing the nation. He said that no political or non-political group would be allowed to damage the economy and stability of the country.
He asked Chief Secretaries of IGPs of Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa to stand with law and constitution after the clear evidences of planning by a group to assault Capital.
Minister for Interior Rana Sanaullah hailed the apolitical role of the armed forces and for its commitment to perform their role as per the law and constitution of the country.
To a question, he said that judicial commission had been formed to probe into the tragic killing of journalist Arshad Sharif. He said that the report of the commission and facts collected by the two-member team during their visit to Kenya would be shared with the family of the deceased and every step will be taken for their satisfaction. If the mother of Arshad Sharif is not satisfied with the government measures, she would be asked to tell other options which may satisfy her and the government to follow it.
During the next General Election, he said PML-N would be stronger due to lack of support of provincial governments for PTI. He said that the PML-N would get success in next election as there would be a level playing field.
The PML-N led government had to make tough decisions after coming into power because the PTI government put the country on the verge of bankruptcy. He said that tough decisions were critical to put the economy on the right track and PML-N led government would manage the economy effectively in coming days and to provide relief to people.
He said that negotiations with PTI were only possible if its leaders accept the writ of law and constitution, abandon foreign agenda and follow the decency in politics.
The minister said that the PTI chairman was claiming of bringing a sea of the people but the people of Lahore had completely rejected the march of `fitna’, and few hundred people left until the march reached Gujranwala. Rana Sanaullah said that the PTI chairman was using abusive language in his speeches during the march, adding that people won’t be betrayed by their madness.
“An investigation is being carried out into Ehsaas program and you all will be caught red-handed,” the minister said adding that 8,000 families had been given money through Ehsaas program during the elections only in Faisalabad.
To a question, he said that there had been no information about diverting the long march towards Rawalpindi instead of Islamabad.
