PM Imran Khan hits out hard against opposition in Swat Jalsa

Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan on Wednesday came down heavily on the opposition alliance pursuing the scandalous “Changa Manga” politics and said the coming days will prove to be defining moments in Pakistan’s history.

“As I have invited people in Islamabad on March 27 [for a rally], the nation should come out to tell that they stand with the truth and not with thieves, dacoits, hypocrites and the slaves of America,” PM Imran said while addressing a huge public gathering at the Grassy Ground in Saidu Sharif in Swat.

The premier alleged that “bags of notes” were being used from Sindh House in Islamabad for horse-trading and buying the conscience of the members of parliament, like Nawaz Sharif [former prime minister] did in Changa Manga in the past.

“Does the constitution allow horse-trading? Does any democracy in the world allow this? Is this practice allowed in the UK; the democracy which we follow?” he remarked while posing a question to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).

He regretted that the opposition parties have decided to abolish the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) law and withdraw their cases if they succeed [in removing him]. “They don’t even feel shamed”, he remarked.

PM Imran said the opposition parties were doing all this to protect their corruption. “They know that if Imran Khan remains in power, all of them would be in jails,” he remarked.
