PTI ridiculing constitutional institutions: Marriyum

ISLAMABAD, Jan 26 (APP): Minister of State for Information,
Broadcasting and National Heritage Marriyum Aurangzeb Thursday
took exception to the boisterous attitude adopted by Pakistan
Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) in the National Assembly.
The party had no respect for the country’s constitutional
institutions as evident from their rowdy and ridiculing attitude
in the National Assembly, she said while talking to the media
outside the Parliament House.
She said it also reflected from the attitude of PTI
lawmakers that party chief Imran Khan was in complete knowledge
of what was going to happen in the House.
Imran Khan knew that the PTI’s case on the Panama Papers,
which was being heard by the Supreme Court, was weak as the
arguments offered by his counsel had no substance and he
was sensing that he would not get the desired verdict, she added.
The minister reiterated that Imran was in the habit of
ridiculing state institutions as he had done during the party’s
sit-in in front of the Parliament House.
She said Imran had noting to do with the elimination of
corruption. In fact he wanted to come into power and for the
purpose, he was making desperate attempts, she added.
Marriyum said Imran was not happy with flourishing economy and
strengthening democracy in the country. He was trying to hamper the
country’s journey towards prosperity, but the nation had rejected
his that peculiar psychiatric disposition.
