Pakistan Information and Broadcasting Minister blames Imran Khan for people's suffering due to inflation, unemployment

Islamabad: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Marriyum Aurangzeb has slammed former Prime Minister Imran Khan and his government, and also blamed him for people now facing high inflation and unemployment in the country.

Addressing a news conference in Islamabad on Sunday afternoon, she was quoted as saying by Radio Pakistan that Imran Khan put his political opponents in jails and detained them in death cells but he could not prove anything wrong against them in a court of law.

She said Imran Khan kept busy in using NAB, Federal Investigation Agency and other government authorities to victimize political opponents and did not pay any attention to mitigate the sufferings of the people of Pakistan.

She said people are facing high inflation and unemployment in the country due to incompetence of Imran Khan.

Imran Khan was ousted from power when he was defeated in a no-confidence vote against him.

Shehbaz Sharif took oath as the PM of Pakistan last month.
