Pakistan is on its way to development under Prime Minister Imran Khan: Usman Buzdar

Lahore, October 07, 2020 (PPI-OT): Chief Minister Punjab Sardar Usman Buzdar has regretted the opposition is playing with national interests in the garb of politics aiming at protecting personal interests. In a statement, he stated that elements trying to spread anarchy through their negative politics do not want national development. They are committing enmity with the people and the opposition wants to make the country hostage of poverty and darkness.

He reiterated the opposition has no concern with public issues and the future of those creating hue and cry is dark like their present. He announced that every conspiracy against the development journey will be foiled with public support. Past rulers set new corruption records and a new scandal was revealed each day during the previous tenure, he added.

Usman Buzdar asserted the incumbent government is most transparent in the history of the country and credit goes to the PTI government that not a single corruption scandal has surfaced during the last two years. The country has been moved towards development and new records of public service have been set. The country is on its way to development and prosperity under the leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan, concluded the CM.
