LAHORE, Jul 30 (APP):Punjab Minister for Information and Culture Azma Bokhari believes that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) planned protest on August 5 will prove to be a complete failure.
In a strongly worded statement issued on Wednesday, she said the protest preparations failed to gain momentum, with the current PTI leadership, party workers, and even their close family members showing no interest or willingness to participate.
Mocking the party’s internal disarray, Azma remarked, “Phuppo’s dream remained unfulfilled — the nephews are not coming to Pakistan. The former sister-in-law has stopped her children from returning.” She questioned how a movement could succeed when even the so-called leader’s own family members refused to stand by it.
She stated that PTI leader Aleema Khan herself had predicted the protest’s failure, adding that the present PTI leadership was not backing the protest either.
Azma Bokhari accused the PTI’s Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa government of misappropriating Rs 354 billion in local government funds. She termed the massive financial scandal a “public charge sheet” against PTI’s 12-year rule in the province.
“The irony is that those who constantly accuse others of corruption have themselves broken all records of financial irregularities,” she asserted.
Concluding her statement, she remarked, “Those who disrespected the monuments of martyrs are now facing public hatred. The ones being disqualified today are, in reality, the failed rebels of yesterday.”
