ISLAMABAD: Information and Broadcasting Minister Maryam Aurangzeb on Saturday said that Nawaz Sharif’s politics focuses on serving the masses while Imran Khan solely focuses on lies and spreading anarchy.

“Nawaz Sharif let Imran rule Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) but he wasted that opportunity,” she added.

In a statement, the minister said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan could only compete with Nawaz Sharif in his dreams. “For having competition with Nawaz Sharif,” she said, “one should be a civilized like him, besides being elected as prime minister thrice due to the votes and prayers of the people.”

“If Imran wanted to compete Nawaz, then he would have to love the people of Pakistan and serve them selflessly like the latter,” she reiterated. The minister said that the PTI chief should know that life was the name of continuous struggle, not of telling lies.

She said, “The KP government was now pursuing a similar policy. The entire curriculum in Punjab had been put online while infrastructure of about 55,000 schools had been improved.”

She advised Imran to approach Shehbaz to improve health, education and sports sectors in KP. “He should also seek guidance from the PM’s daughter, as she was looking after Prime Minister’s educational reforms and health care programmes.

She said that a person telling lies day and night, and trying to mislead the nation would not succeed in his plan to become Prime Minister.
