He said construction of a medical college, Danish Schools System and university would provide quality treatment and education to people of North Waziristan at their doorsteps besides bolster women education.

He said PTI Chief Imran Khan’s lettergate narrative has been exposed before masses after the recent statement of DG ISPR. He said Imran Khan has failed to address people problems during his over three and half years rule.

“It would have been better for Imran Khan to tell people about his unfulfilled promises regarding construction of five million houses and 10 million jobs during his address at Lahore rather to tell them to become ready for Islamabad agitation march, ” he said.

He said Imran Khan has deceived masses in the name of change, religion and was now trying to mislead them on the alleged lettergate.
