NOWSHERA: Federal Minister for Defence Pervez Khattak on Sunday advised the opposition parties to adopt constitutional ways to remove the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government instead of going for public meetings during the ongoing second wave of coronavirus.
“The opposition parties are making people vulnerable to Covid-19 by continuing with public meetings, which is a highly dangerous move,” he said while speaking at a function arranged at Mera Khandar area of the Nowshera district.
Several Awami National Party workers, headed by Nawab Ali Khan Babakhel and Zakir Ali Khan Babakhel announced joining the ruling PTI on the occasion. The defence minister welcomed the new entrants to the party and presented them the PTI caps.
