He was addressing two separate gatherings at the residence of Amjad Azam at union council, Badrashi and a joining public meeting at Risalpur wherein an ANP activist Gohar Taj announced joining PTI along with his family and associates.

The federal minister said the people of Naushehra will accord warm welcome to Prime Minister Imran Khan that would prove a referendum against the opposition.

He termed Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) a bunch of jobless politicians who have joined hands on a single point agenda of hiding their corruption. He said that till tomorrow they were accusing each other of corruption and now have embraced each other for protection of their personal interests.

Opposition’s tirade against Pak Army is strengthening the narrative of the neighbouring country India and asked them to refrain from becoming instrumental in this conspiracy.

The defence minister said that Pak-Army had rendered huge sacrifices for the country and opposition should not do politics on it, otherwise, he said 220 million population of the country would not forgive them in any circumstances.
