Pakistan

She termed Imran Khan a 'foreign agent'

ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb said on Monday that the appointment of caretaker chief minister Punjab was made according to the constitution and law and now there would be elections and not the selection in the province.

Imran Khan was worried over Mohsin Naqvi’s appointment as caretaker chief minister because this was not done by ‘witchcraft’ but according to the constitution and law, she said in a tweet on Monday.

She termed Imran a ‘foreign agent’ who used $3 million funds of Shaukat Khanum hospital for business purpose. She also criticized Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Chairman for ‘imposing’ Usman Buzdar on the people of Punjab.

The minister rejecting the PTI’s criticism over caretaker chief minister’s appointment said now there would be elections in Punjab and no longer selection as done in 2018.
