Prime Minister Imran Khan was criticized by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Nawaz Sharif for not compromising national security or disclosing any state secrets in order to maintain his power. Khan was sentenced to ten years in prison in the cipher case.
The founder of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) was sharply criticized by the three-time former premier during his speech to an electoral rally in the Haroonabad town of Punjab Bahawalnagar district on Tuesday. He was accused of plotting a “conspiracy” that jeopardized national security.
The former foreign minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi and cricketer-turned-politician were convicted to ten years each in the cipher case today, which involves claims that they leaked information from a covert cable delivered to the government by the nation’s ambassador in Washington.
He thanked the residents of Haroonabad for coming out in force to greet him and said that the turnout for his election rally surpassed all prior municipal records.
Nawaz pointed fingers at Khan and remarked, “Despite being subjugated, I had never revealed any state secret nor compromised the national security,” adding that Khan had “attacked” the nation’s integrity in order to maintain his control.
“In spite of terrible persecution, I remain in front of the country. I lost my position as prime because my son had not paid me. Three times I lost the prime ministership, which also cost the nation money.
During his past tenures, the PML-N supremo claimed credit for managing gasoline prices, load shedding, inflation, US dollar fluctuations, and providing assistance to common people and farmers.
Additionally, we had disbanded the IMF. We were working on the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor, or CPEC, and growing the network of motorways. However, the previous PTI government persisted in pleading with other nations. Nawaz asserted.
Additionally, he brought up the most recent global corruption index ranking, stating that Transparency International deemed the PTI founder’s era to be the most corrupt. Although the country’s corruption index increased under the PTI government, corruption declined throughout our administration.
Nawaz accused Khan of upending the nation’s foundations during his four years in power.
