PESHAWAR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 20th May, 2019 ) :Political and economics' experts here on Monday termed gathering of opposition parties on name of Iftar party was a political gimmick staged to divert attention of masses from mega corruption cases.

Member National Assembly (MNA), Pakistan Tehreek a Insaaf (PTI) Nasir Khan Musazai told APP that opposition gathering on name of Iftar dinner was a political gimmick and a failed attempt by PPP, PMLN and other opposition leadership to get cheap popularity.

He said PTI Government has inherited existing problems due to wrong policies of previous regimes of PPP and PMLN and time is required for its complete resolution.

The PTI leader said leadership of opposition parties have completely failed to provide a concrete solution for resolution of existing country's problems rather made mere political statements to divert attention of masses from mega corruption cases. He said existing problems could not be addressed overnight and would take time for its resolution.

Musazai said Prime Minister Imran Khan was the last hope for people of Pakistan and under his leadership, the country would achieve new heights of progress and development.

PTI leader and Nazim Bahadar Khan said opposition have no concerned with price-hike, inflation and increase in value of Dollar but they were united to protect corruption of each others.

"The looters of national wealth were stand exposed," he said adding, "people are politically mature and will not pay any head to opposition agitation calls and APC as they want resolution of their problems".

The PTI leader said due to wrong economic policies of the past regimes, the country was confronted with current difficult economic situation and increase in value of dollar against rupee.

He said those who were calling each others' corrupt, looters and thieves in the past were again united to befool masses on Names of price hike, inflation and Dollars but would not succeed in their ill designs.

"When corrupt elements get united it means the leader is honest and upright," he said adding, Pakistan was moving ahead under leadership of Prime Minister Imran Khan and time was not for away when the country would achieve new heights of progress and development.

He said problems of Pakistan could not be addressed in streets or roads' agitation but in Parliament that was main source of strength for a democratic system.

Senior economist and financial expert, Sumbul Riaz said Pakistan' could not afford political instability and chaos in the present difficult economic situation and called for political cohesion to take the country out of existing grave challenges.

She regretted over negative attitude and agitation calls of opposition parties regarding protests inside and outside of the parliament after Eidul Fitre, saying political instability, sits ins and agitation was very harmful for economy and no solution to existing problems.

She said PPP and PMLN, being major opposition parties in yesterday Iftar meeting, has failed to come with a any solid solution of existing problems rather its leadership paid own lip service by making statement on price hike etc to gain sympathies of masses.

She said Pakistan's economy was coming back on right track and IMF's bailed out package and new amnesty scheme would help strengthen tax base and documentation of notational economy.
