“The status quo doesn’t allow change. It makes them lose their money. How will they make money if they don’t resist change?” Khan said in a speech after he broke ground on apartments for low-income groups here. “This way, a whole [vicious] system is developed in society.”
Khan was referring to the “resistance the government faced from all quarters” in its efforts to introduce automation, which the Prime Minister believes would eliminate corruption.
LAHORE: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that war against political and profiteering mafia is going on to ensure supremacy of the rule of law, as it serves as a defining moment to transform the country into a corruption-free and independent society.

“The UNDP’s latest report says the war-torn Khyber Pakhtunkhwa is the one province in Pakistan that overcame poverty during the past six years,” Mr Khan said, claiming that it was for this reason his party Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) regained power in KP in 2018 elections.
