ISLAMABAD: Khawaja Muhammad Asif on Saturday mocked the the federal government for seeking and signing "NRO" after repeatedly accusing Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz of begging for NRO.
Although the former minister didn't name anyone, his tweet was an obvious reference to an agreement which the government signed with the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP) on Friday in order to disperse the protesters who had paralyzed major cities of Pakistan after Supreme Court exonerated Asia Bibi of blasphemy charges.
The agreement came a couple of days after Prime Minister Imran Khan warned the protesters against clashing with the state during a TV address.
Hours after his address, the prime minister left for China on an official visit.
