PTI Minister Zartaj Gul comes under fire

ISLAMABAD - PTI State Minister for climate change Zartaj Gul comes under fire for calling her husband in a meeting.

An image making rounds on the social media shows Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader and State Minister for Climate Change Zartaj Gul’s husband present at an official meeting.

Gul was reportedly holding a meeting with a delegation of the United Nations.

“Under what authority was her husband present at the meeting?” asked the individual who had uploaded the image, further criticising her for involving family members in official government matters.

Responding to allegations of nepotism, Gul took to Twitter to speak out over the matter.

“Fuss is being created by some regarding a pic showing my husband Akhwand Humayun sitting with me during a discussion with UNICEF reps,” she said.

“Firstly, it was an off-chance unofficial meeting where the reps wanted to give some quick suggestions for the #CleanGreenPakistan campaign,” she added.
