Opposition’s outcry just to divert attention from corruption cases: Sumsam

LAHORE: Provincial Information Minister  Syed Sumsam Ali Bukhari said that opposition was raising  outcry to divert attention from their corruption cases.

In a press statement issued here on Tuesday, he said  that Prime Minister Imran Khan’s announcement to stand steadfast against corruption was commendable. He said that  it was the dire need to constitute a commission in Punjab for ten years.

The PML-N indulged in high-handed policies  during its tenure only and did nothing in Punjab for its uplift.

Sumsam Bukhari said, “We will bring to light all fake companies and paper projects before the public.” He said  that havoc had been played with the people of Punjab for  the last ten years. Money laundering stories of past rulers  are coming to surface, he added.

Opposition parties wanted to safeguard their interests  under the garb of budget, he alleged. People are fully aware that how much PML-N and PPP feel  the pain of their agony, he said and added that those ruining  the economy should not pose their innocence.

Sumsam Bukhari said that Prime Minister Imran Khan was  adopting policies in order to achieve far-reaching results  for the progress and prosperity of Pakistan. Those who  filled up their coffers by ill-gotten money would have to  return each and every single penny and the PTI would not  relent unless consigning the corrupt elements to their  logical end, he added.
