ISLAMABAD: Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan once again lashed at former prime minister and current Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif in a series of statements on his Twitter account.
In a series of tweets on Sunday, Khan tweeted that Sharif’s idea of democracy and a prime minister heading a government is where the premier is above the law after coming into power.
Yesterday Nawaz Sharif made clear his idea of democracy and of a PM heading a democratic govt was where the PM is above the law of the land after being elected. He can money launder, evade taxes, conceal assets, lie before parl – all corruption is permissable coz PM is elected!

He also said that according to Sharif’s notion of democracy, an eleted premier can abuse state institutions, attack Supreme Court with party workers and give money to judges.
Moreover acc to NS’s notion of democracy, the elected PM can abuse all state institutions, storm SC with his party hoodlums, give judges briefcases full of money – with no questions asked and no law applied because an elected PM is above the law of the land! https://t.co/pivKwLE0eF

Nawaz as usual also held forth with a litany of lies abt KP govt. Fact is there are 350 micro hydel stations completed in KP – all NS had to do was to send his paid hacks to chk this out! As for police, health and education reforms – all NS had to do was to talk to KP ppl!

Commenting on Sharif’s remarks on the Billion Tree Tsunami, Khan stated that the program was audited by World Worldlife Fund (WWF) and the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was commended by Bonn Challenge.
“Such ignorance on part of NS is shameful,” Khan tweeted.
As for the Billion Tree Tsunami someone needs to remove Nawaz’s ignorance on this inform him WWF has audited the prog; Bonn Challenge has commended KP govt on it; IUCN has acknowledged it’s success. Such ignorance on part of NS is shameful! https://t.co/btNSgT6nmK
