Author: APP

ISLAMABAD: Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Political Communication Dr. Shahbaz Gill on Saturday said former Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif spent the entire budget of the province in one city for kickbacks.

In response to the statement of Marryam Aurangzeb, he said the monthly expenditure of the Orange Line train was about Rs 540 million against its revenue of Rs 60 million only. He said as a CM Shahbaz Sharif benefited the sugar mill owned by his sons. The past rulers did not consider the abuse of power a crime for personal business gain, he added.

Gill said the purpose of their politics was not public welfare but to expand their businesses. He said the money laundered kickbacks under the guise of business. The businesses of former rulers grew rapidly, he said. He said despite the tall claim of not committing a single penny corruption, money laundered billions of rupees.
