PTI spokesperson said people were dying in trains accidents on daily basis, while Saad Rafiq was busy in fighting the case of Sharif family.
He said that during last three years hundreds of people had lost their lives, but he was little bother about them; hence he demanded that Saad Rafiq should immediately be relieved of his duty and case of the people killed in the accident should be registered against him. The spokesperson said that Auditor General of Pakistan in its report rated Pakistan Railways as the most corrupt institutions of the country, as it unearthed corruption worth Rs 9 billion in the department.
He said Railways Minister was utilising all energy to defend the 'Royal Sharif Family' of the Panama scandal instead of focusing bringing any improvement in the Railways. Saad Rafiq left no stone unturned to get the slot of Information Minister, but he faced embarrassment, he maintained. He said the Minister should also be held accountable for billions of embezzlement in Pakistan Railways as well as theft of scrap from the warehouses of Railways.
