ISLAMABAD: Opposition Leader in the National Assembly Syed Khursheed Shah on Friday came up in support of Mian Riaz Hussain Pirzada, who resigned as the Minister for Inter-Provincial Coordination, and said how the prime minister would stop corruption when he was still involved in the Panama case. He said corruption is going on but the PM has completely failed to stop it, which is putting the democratic system in danger.
"In the Panama case, the prime minister was **t seen as honest and his insistence to continue as the prime minister is **t in favour of the country," Khursheed Shah said while talking to media persons here at his chamber in the Parliament House.
The opposition leader said the way the issue of DawnLeaks was handled raised many questions and doubts have been created that the matter of friendship with Indian Prime Minister Modi and Jindal and his tilt towards India may be true. He said it was regrettable that the prime minister was forgetting the Indian atrocities in Kashmir and holding secret meetings with his business friends and steel tycoon Sajjan Jindal and it was an old habit of the prime minister.
"The premier should have taken the nation into confidence but instead he is giving more attention to his personal and business relations," the opposition leader said. He said the Interior Ministry should tell the nation that according to reports, the visa for Indian businessmen was issued for only Islamabad and Lahore but how in violation of the visa they reached Murree. "**w doubts have been created on patriotism of the prime minister and it will be difficult for him to prove himself a patriot," he added.
