Punjab govt sidelined Rs 10b energy projects

DUNYA NEWS
Rehman Malik has lambasted Mian Shahbaz Sharif for sidelining Rs10 billion of energy projects. Advisor to the Prime Minister on Interior, Rehman Malik has lambasted Mian Shahbaz Sharif for sidelining Rs10 billion of energy projects for the Province. Replying to a question, while talking to media in NADRA Headquarters on Wednesday, he termed Punjab chief minister as a major con artist and dacoit who had committed a massive fraud worth Rs.1.7 billion in his Province. “Had he spent Rs.10 billion for electricity needs of Province, instead of defrauding nation, he would not have indulged in meaningless and futile dramatizations”, he retorted, while also accusing Nawaz Sharif of dramatizing issues while sitting in tents. He said that history of PPP was replete with ‘sacrifices’, while Nawaz Sharif had rather joined hands with “A-team” of former President Pervez Musharraf. Declaring former PM, (late) Z A Bhutto as a great leader who still ruled the minds and hearts of leaders of today, he said that Gaddafi Stadium was a part of nation’s heritage and history, which should not be broken. He also strongly condemned continuous drone attacks by America, demanding their forthwith cessation; and also declared FATA as a place of the brave and honorable, who had proudly joined hands with Army and FC against the negative elements of militancy and terrorism.
