Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi Thursday said that those defecting from parties could only serve themselves and not the nation.
“Those who are not lo
yal to the party cannot be lo
yal to the country either,” the premier observed while speaking at the inaugurat
ion ceremony of a gas project in Sheikhupura.
“Those who cannot respect
others cannot respect the vote either,” the premier said
.
In an apparent reference to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the prime minister said those who had been levelling accusations and using abusive terms did not represent Pakistan’s politics.
The prime minister said tht milestones outlined in the PTI’s 100-day plan had been achieved by the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
