ISLAMABAD: Gilgit Baltistan (GB) Chief Minister Hafiz Hafeezur Rehman on Tuesday said Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan was setting the wrong trend by using abusive language against the national leadership.
Addressing a press conference at GB House he said Imran Khan was pressurizing state institutions through his harsh language.
The CM was accompanied by cabinet members of the GB council and the legislative assembly.
He called Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, a visionary and the popular leader of the country.
He said Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) respected the judiciary and would accept every decision of the Supreme Court, expressing his hope that the PML-N leadership would get a clean chit from the court.
Hafiz Hafeez said that under the PM’s visionary leadership, the journey of development and prosperity had started across the country, adding that Imran Khan only wanted to destabilise the country through his ‘Dharna’ (sit-in) politics.
He said the China Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC) was a hope for the people of Pakistan while the PTI wanted to stop this project.
The chief minister said that due to the untiring efforts of the present government, law and order had improved in the country and energy crises had also decreased.
He said due to improved law and order situation in GB, one million tourists had visited the area during the previous year, adding that a 14 mega watt electricity project had also been completed in the short period of 25 months in GB.
