ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 22nd May, 2018 ) :The hundred day programme unfurled by the PTI is a clumsy imitation of Federal Government's Vision-2025 and if the party had imitated it properly the people would have found something praiseworthy out of the pack of lies.
This was stated by Federal Minister for Information & Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb while addressing a press conference here at the Punjab House here along with federal ministers Ahsan Iqbal, Saira Afzal Tarar, Baligh ur Rehman and Miftah Ismail, and spokesman of the Punjab government Ahmed Khan.
She said that the programme was like the tsunami of billion trees adding that the party making claims of ending corruption in 90 days had locked the Ehtsab Commission in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) which was charged with the responsibility to check corruption.
The minister said that the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) could not divert the attention of the people of KP from what happened to them during the last five years by simply presenting the 100-day programme.
She said that the people of Pakistan would demand an answer to that. She challenged Imran Khan to show even a single room added to a school in the KP, a hall constructed in a hospital or any other project of public welfare and also to reveal what happened to his claims of producing so much electricity which would be enough for the whole of Pakistan.
She said that the people of KP were demanding accountability for the last five years. Marriyum advised the KP government to at least fill the trenches dug for the Metro Train to show some performance and also to save people from a likely mishap.
The minister said that the PML-N was in the process of drawing up its manifesto in line with the vision of former prime minister under the stewardship of Shehbaz Sharif and before making it public the party would present an account of its performance during the last five years.
She claimed that the people of Pakistan would again give mandate to rule the country to the PML-N on the basis of its performance. She said that the PML-N had added 11000MW electricity to the system during the last five years which was more than produced during the last 66 years.
The minister observed that the PML-N government had also constructed a network of motorways measuring 1700 kilometers. Marriyum said that the performance of the ministries and divisions at the federal level and Punjab would be compared with the performance of other provinces on daily basis.
She said that the time had come for the people to vote on the basis of performance as they had become aware of the stakes involved. The minister observed that the federal ministers had unraveled the performance of their ministries before the people within a short span of one hour.
She said that the trenches dug in Peshawar which had made the lives of the people miserable amply mirrored the 100-day programme of PTI. She observed that as against it the Metro Bus in Lahore, Rawalpindi, Multan, Orange Line in Lahore and Green Line in Karachi presented an enviable comparison only in one sphere.
Marriyum observed that the projects, which had been abandoned and become history, were not only restarted by the federal and Punjab governments but were also completed. She said that the PML-N was not waiting for only 2018 but it had chalked out plans up to 2025-26.
She said that the PML-N wished that Imran Khan had done similar development in KP, which was done in Punjab as corroborated by the UNDP report that was launched side by side when 100-day programme was presented by the PTI.
The minister said that they felt grieved over what was done to the people of KP. She said that if the Human Development Index of KP was compared with other provinces it had even fallen behind Sindh and Balochistan in certain areas.
