LAHORE: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has blamed the PTI chief Imran Khan and a former chief justice for causing huge damage to the Pakistan Kidney and Liver Institute (PKLI) but expressed his firm resolve to transform it into a splendid institute like Johns Hopkins.

On his Twitter handle, the prime minister said that the PKLI had always been close to his heart and he wanted it to become an identity for Pakistan in the rest of the world for the treatment facilities in kidney and liver diseases.

“But alas! Imran Niazi and a former chief justice out of their politics and personal interests targeted this mission and inflicted huge damage,” he said.
