RECORDER REPORT

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Muhammad Shahbaz Sharif has said the PTI has devastated the province of KPK and the whole city of Peshawar has also been defaced.

In his telephonic address at a public meeting at Butgram district of KPK on Tuesday, Shahbaz said, “The promises made with the nation by Imran Niazi have proved false. Khan Sahib has started metro bus project in Peshawar which he always used to call as Jangla bus. This Jangla bus could not ply in Peshawar as the constitutional tenure of the government is about to an end, now.”

Shahbaz was scheduled to address the public meeting at Butgram but he could not reach there due to inclement weather.

Shahbaz said in his telephonic address the PTI government has not solved the problems of the KPK people but has wasted their time. “The people living in KPK province are proud citizens of the country.”

He said that Imran Khan Niazi promised five years ago to produce thousands of megawatts electricity. He even claimed that ample electricity will be produced to provide it to the whole of KPK province and the country as well. However, electricity generation projects of just 74 megawatt electricity have been set up after the passage of five years, he added. On the other side, Shahbaz said 80 megawatt electricity generation project set up by the previous government went out of order in 2016 and the PTI government has failed to rerun this project. This way, the PTI government has produced minus six megawatt electricity. Has the person who makes false promises and deceives the nation, the right to lead and govern the masses, he questioned.  

Shahbaz said that one billion tree tsunami has also proved a false claim. “Imran Khan lied at every occasion and set records of falsehood,” he said, adding: “If Allah Almighty gave us an opportunity, we shall make KPK province another Punjab and Peshawar will be developed as like Lahore. Development works will be carried out in Hazara, Butgram and other cities. New educational institutions and hospitals will be set up.
