Marriyum lashes out at PTI

Spokeswoman for PML-N Marriyum Aurangzeb has said the PTI resorts to abuses, blames and making hue and cry whenever this party has been questioned about its five-year performance in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Reacting to the allegations levelled by PTI spokesman Faward Chauhdary yesterday, Marriyum Aurangzeb said the culture of levelling allegations and abuse is going to cost Imran Khan and his party in the next election as the efficiency and performance of the PTI government in KPK stands exposed to masses. The spokesperson said had Imran Khan’s party delivered in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) in the last five years, he would not have been crying now.“Imran Khan should reply to the objections raised by the ECP to his nomination papers instead of hurling abuses,” Marriuym Aurangzeb said. –Staff Reporter
