Nawaz, Imran same sides of coin: Dasti

From Our Correspondent

MULTAN: Awami Raaj Party chief MNA Jamshed Dasti has said that PM Nawaz Sharif and PTI chairman Imran Khan are the same sides of a coin.

Talking to The News here on Tuesday, Jamshed Dasti criticised PTI chairman Imran Khan and alleged that he was a failed politician and his ridiculous politics was strengthening the PML-N rule. He claimed that nothing was going to happen in the PTI rally in Islamabad on November 2, adding that adventurism would sabotage Imran Khan’s politics. The PTI rally would expose Imran’s strength and roots in the masses across the country, he added. He assured Imran Khan his support if he first jams wheel in Khyber Pakhtoonkhwa and closedown Terbela Dam in protest before shutting down Islamabad. Jamshed Dasti said that Imran Khan should not deceive people around the country and prove corruption in the Supreme Court instead of shouting slogans against corruption. He criticised the PTI and the PPP for playing with the people of the South Punjab in the name of separate province. He said that ex-PM Syed Yousaf Raza Gilani demanded creation of fifth province as a political stunt when the PPP government was completing her tenure in 2013. Jamshed Dasti alleged that the PTI was scoring points on the South Punjab province. He said that Imran Khan sacked senior politician Sherpao’s son on corruption charges in the KP but again included him in the provincial cabinet after six months. This step exposed his commitment with elimination of corruption, he alleged. He said that he had decided to contest from NA-150 in the next elections on the demand made by the voters of the areas. Jamshed Dasti demanded the government elevate at least four lawyers as judges in the Lahore High Court.
