LAHORE: Punjab Information Minister Azma Bokhari has said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf is playing a drama of negotiations on the one hand while on the other, it is spreading the message of civil disobedience.

Talking to media here on Thursday, she said PTI leading figures such as Zulfi Bukhari, Shahbaz Gill, and Shehzad Akbar were actively encouraging overseas Pakistanis on social media not to send remittances. Overseas Pakistanis have rejected the mischief and the anti-country actions of the Fitna party, and have sent the highest-ever remittances in the history of Pakistan this year. The Adiala Jail prisoner, who has been telling the nation for the past one and a half years that he will free them from American slavery, has now been pleading with the American lobby to intervene in Pakistan for over a month. Some petty individuals, influenced by the Jewish lobby, are currently active in saving their pawns.

The information minister emphasized that Pakistan was a sovereign country. Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has told the US “absolutely not”. Pakistan will not allow anyone to interfere in its internal matters. The Adiala Jail prisoner is ready to beg anyone to secure an ‘NRO’.
