PPP questions impartiality of caretaker govt

ISLAMABAD: Secretary General Pakistan Peoples Party Syed Nayyar Hussain Bukhari on Friday took notice of providing Imran Khan an army of Rangers officials to guard Banigala Palace.

Bukhari in a statement said Imran Khan had been provided unusual protocol and over 300 Rangers jawans had been deployed at Banigala to protect him from his own disgruntled workers. A large number of policemen had also been deployed at Banigala. He said that it seemed that Interior Minister Azam Khan was behaving like a PTI worker. This amounts to pre-poll rigging, Bukhari said.

PPP Secretary General said that on one hand, a politician who had soft corner for TTP and terrorists were being provided with foolproof security and on the other hand, the politicians who had real threat to their security were left with no security. He demanded of the caretaker government to justify such disparity in security matters and restrain from being biased.
