PML-N’s Khurram Dastgir said that the worsening condition of the country was a result of political engineering by the people whose names Nawaz Sharif has stated recently.

“Nawaz Sharif is the only leader who brought a former military dictator before the court. For the last nine years, we are facing the consequences of that action,” Dastgir stated.

Talking about the formation of a new party by former PML-N leader Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, he said that questions would arise over why he could not deliver when he was in another party and the prime minister.

“They face a serious challenge to answer the question about what stopped them from better governance while they were in power,” he added.
