LAHORE - Special Assistant to the Chief Minister on Infor-mation Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan has reminded the PML-N that the useless narrative of self-appointed Khadim-e-Aala will not work after the failure of Maryam Safdar’s offensive narrative.
In a statement, she said that the absconding patriarch was found enjoying a polo match in London while the aging ‘thespian’ was lurking in Raiwind after the failure of her tongue-lashing. “The ‘PML-Shehbaz’ is trying to make the so-called Khadim-e-Aala politically alive. However, there is no chance of political rapprochement between Shehbaz Sharif and Bilawal Zardari as the latter had stabbed everyone in the back,” she remarked, adding that Bilawal had already deceived Maryam Safdar and Maulana Fazalur Rehman. “It’s now Shehbaz Sharif’s turn, and peo-ple will soon watch the conclusion of this political circus,” concluded the CM’s assistant.
