ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said the opposition is “blackmailing” state institutions to overthrow a democratically-elected government and that their “unprecedented targeting of the Army is similar to the Indian propaganda machine against Pakistan”.
“I have never seen any opposition targeting the army. Just for the sake of NRO, through blackmailing or pressure tactics,” he said while addressing a gathering after breaking ground of four mega development projects worth Rs15 billion in Chakwal.
While reiterating his uncompromising stance over the opposition’s corruption cases, the Prime Minister said any concession—by any government—would be the “biggest” act of treason. “If any government gives an NRO to these thieves, it would be treason even bigger than that by an enemy,” the Prime Minister said.
