PTI’s White Paper just hue and cry of a ‘plunderer’: Sherry Rehman

ISLAMABAD (APP) - Federal Minister for Climate Change Sherry Rehman on Wednesday called the white paper issued by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on the coalition government’s eight-month performance "nothing more than a hue and cry of a plunderer". 

In a series of tweets, the federal minister said the the PTI had released a white paper on the performance of the current government for eight months. It had been issued by those whose red warrants should have been issued for the crime of destroying the country’s economy. 

The minister said: “These are the people who are not ready to give an account of their worst four years in power. These are the people who ruled the country for four years and then say we had no authority (and) someone else was running the government.” 

She queried that under what legitimate right did the PTI issue its white paper as they were responsible for paralysing the country and indebting the government. It would take many years, not eight months, to pull the country out of the crisis orchestrated by the PTI, she said. 

“Who got 10 million jobs and five million houses? Why did those (PTI leaders) who claimed not to take loans, increased the country’s debts by 70pc? Why did those who make the narrative of corruption themselves become disqualified on corruption? He (Imran Khan) plundered the country’s economy like Toshakhana,” the minister said.
