Lahore, August 25, 2022 (PPI-OT):Punjab Local Government Minister Mian Mahmood-ul-Rashid has strongly condemned the federal government’s restrictions on the media and said in a statement on Thursday that the imported government, afraid of Imran Khan’s rallies, was venting its anger on the media. Addressing the PDM government, he said that the more channels you take off air, the more Imran Khan’s narrative would go ‘on air’.
Mian Mehmood-ul-Rashid said that the more the imported government suppresses public voice, the more people would come out in support of PTI. He said that Imran Khan’s voice had broken the restrictions of the media and had spread all over the world.
“Be it the country or abroad, Imran Khan has become the most popular leader among Pakistanis and Muslims around the world”, he added. Criticizing the federal government further, LG Minister said that the imported government’s entire focus was on closing the TV channels instead of helping the people trapped in the flood, while the PTI’s leader Imran Khan had directed his workers to help the people affected in the flood.
He said that on the instructions of his leader Imran Khan and Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi, he was moving to South Punjab immediately where he would comfort the suffering people and provide all possible help. “My LG officers along with necessary machinery are active in the field to assist the government in relief activities and now I myself will go and join them to strengthen ongoing relief operation.” he concluded.
