LAHORE: Punjab Minister for Information and Culture Azma Bokhari, reacting to a statement by Muzammil Aslam, said that the level of understanding of the “fake Aristotle” of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa could be gauged from the fact that he does not even know that provinces have their own roads apart from those maintained by the National Highway Authority (NHA).

Azma Bokhari said that since such roads do not exist in his province, “the poor man” apparently does not know about them. She said the amusing part was that the “fake Aristotle” was always eager to show off his knowledge, but there was hardly any occasion when he appeared embarrassed.

The Punjab Information Minister said Punjab has 80,000 kilometres of its own provincial roads, of which, Alhamdulillah, Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has already had 50,000 kilometres constructed.

Azma Bokhari said that the people of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa hang onto dolis, yet the “fake Aristotle” feels no shame.
