Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Chaudhry Parvez Elahi claimed on Wednesday that it was now Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s turn to get disqualified after Azad Jammu and Kashmir's (AJK) premier was dethroned.
Mr Elahi called on the provincial ministers to discuss the country’s overall situation and preparations of the Punjab Assembly elections. Launching a broadside at Finance Minister Ishaq Dar, Mr Elahi claimed, "Ishaq Dar has a mission to default the country. Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif has sent Ishaq Dar by giving the agenda of enmity towards the country."
Expressing his thoughts over the economic situation, Mr Elahi said, "The poor segment of the society is forced to die, while the patients are losing their lives for the sake of medicines. Even the life-saving drugs are getting short in no time."
"The pharmaceutical companies are getting frustrated by the economic policies of Ishaq Dar and are ending their businesses. Moreover, the international institutions express concern persistently in line with the shortage of life-saving drugs in the country", he lamented.
