Minister denies that cases against Asif Ali Zardari have been transferred from Rawalpindi to Karachi
Hyderabad
Sindh Minister for Information, Transport and Mass Transit Sharjeel Inam Memon said that now-a-days there was a trend of fake news in the country and false news was spread in such a way that it seems to be true.
He said that in a recently published article, false news was spread against the former President of Pakistan Asif Zardari that under NRO all his cases had been transferred from Rawalpindi to Karachi which was baseless as his all cases were being heard in Rawalpindi and none of the cases had been transferred to Karachi.
Talking to media persons at a reception hosted by him at Rawal House, Hyderabad on Monday, he said that they (PPP) did not make any kind of deal and if there was a deal then cases of PPP leadership and its workers would have been closed.
He said that the PDM was formed by the People’s Party and it was a good decision by not resigning at that time, otherwise Imran Niazi would still be the Prime Minister. He said that Fawad Chaudhry had accused him and Nasir Shah of horse trading. “I have not spoken to any member of PTI,” he said.
Sharjeel said that PTI had always done the politics of lies. “This was also a fake news,” he said and added that PTI’s job was to blame people.
He said that the audio leak had come in which Imran Khan was saying that five members were bought.
Talking about the rehabilitation work of the flood victims, he said that the construction of the houses of the victims would be started very soon.
He said that for the first time in the country’s history, two million families affected by the flood/ rains would be given money to build their own houses while farmers who cultivated wheat in the flood-affected areas were being given Rs.5000 per acre. (PR)
