This is not the first time that the prime minister has reacted to the ECL issue raised by the opposition. Earlier, PM Khan had questioned why the lawmakers wanted to go abroad when they have so much work in Pakistan. He wondered why the lawmakers were scared of their names being placed on the ECL.
He added,"Can anyone explain this strange phenomenon to those of us who would be quite happy to remain in and work for Pakistan because we actually love Pakistan."
The government has placed names of 172 prominent personalities on the ECL for their alleged involvement in the fake accounts case. However, after the Supreme Court's order, the federal government removed Pakistan Peoples Party Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari and Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah's names from the no-fly list.
