Improving relations with India at this time would be betrayal with Kashmiri martyrs’ blood, Prime Minister

Talking to the people, PM Imran Khan said that he had spent his entire life in struggle and he got the government in a very difficult time.

He said that when he came, the government was burdened with external and internal debts. “No government has ever had so many problems as we found,”

No one expected that GDP growth would be 4%, now according to experts, GDP growth will go above 4%, he thought.

When the government took over

The Prime Minister said that when he took over the government, the opposition started saying that the government was incompetent on the first day. The opposition said, “if you give NRO then you will be eligible.”

The opposition started asking the army to overthrow the elected government. “I do not understand how much growth has taken place, Allah Almighty has passed us from a difficult time, the next time will be easier,”

He stated that after hard work man goes up, “I want to assure the nation that after the difficulty will come ease.”

Housing societies

Replying to a question, Imran Khan said that action is being taken against illegal housing societies. Headed by Justice Azmat, a board has been formed which will decide which housing society is legal.

Many Plots have been booked several times with fake papers whereas numerous societies are illegal in which many people are living.

He said that the government is bringing systems for computerizing all the land in Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Islamabad and details of illegal housing societies will soon be posted on websites.

Pakistan's position on Kashmir and Palestine

Replying to another question, the Prime Minister said that if the relations with India improve, then the Kashmir issue would be resolved through dialogue.

“We stand with the Kashmiris and we know how many sacrifices they have made.”

There will be a betrayal with the people of Kashmir as there can be no bargaining over the blood of Kashmiris.

He clarified that the issue of Palestine is also like Kashmir as India is changing the identity of occupied Kashmir by bringing people from outside, and this is what Israelis are doing.

The solution to the Palestinian issue is oppression.

The problem of water distribution in the provinces

Regarding the water problem in Sindh, the Prime Minister said that there is a water problem all over Pakistan, “our government is building 10 dams, it is a tragedy that the dams that should have been built 50 years ago are being built now.”

There is a shortage of water while there should be a fair distribution of water in the provinces.

As there is a big problem of distribution of water within the provinces. Water does not reach the weak poor farmers as it is stolen by the powerful for their land. The land of the poor remains dry and it is the responsibility of the Sindh government to supply water.

Ring Road corruption case

Regarding Ring Road corruption, Imran Khan said that he has received news that a scam is taking place in Ring Road and powerful people are being benefited through this project. The anti-corruption team is investigating the Ring Road project.

The road is very much needed, the ring road will be as it should be.

The purpose of opposition is personal

The Prime Minister said that PDM can never succeed in its goal, the goal of the opposition is only personal, these people want the government to end corruption cases by blackmailing because they have stolen people's money by corruption.

People who were on bicycles today have purchased Land Cruiser while those who had a bicycle shop, today they are living in the most expensive areas of London.

The country is heading in the right direction and the opposition did not understand that how the government will get out of economic difficulties whereas now they (opposition) will try to obstruct the budget but “they will not succeed,”

Distribution of Health cards

The Prime Minister said that with Rs 10 billion the health cards were brought to Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. While health cards have been provided to the population in Sahiwal and DG Khan while the whole of Punjab will get health cards by the end of the year.

“The government does not have enough money to build hospitals all over the country, most of the basic health centres (BHUs) in the villages are empty while cheap land to build hospitals will be given to the private sector.”

The private sector does not come to the villages because the poor do not have money.

Tax revenue

Imran Khan said that he saved the economy along with people during coronavirus lockdown.

“Today our economy is getting better as FBR has collected record revenue”

So far Taxes of Rs143 billion have been collected.

Track and trace system will increase tax money while increasing tax collection will give the government more money to spend on people.

Nawaz Sharif and Punjab Police

The Prime Minister said that we will further improve our institutions and economy. Punjab has been ruled by PML-N for 30 years. During the Nawaz Sharif era, 25,000 criminals were recruited in Punjab Police.

PML-N MPAs and MNAs use to occupy lands, “when the police is used against the opponents it has to go bad for the institution,”

He stated that the Punjab government is trying to fix the police but it will take some time, “the nation gets up and improves its institutions, The better the country's institutions, the better the nation.”  

“If he eats, he also works”

Imran Khan said that a nation cannot become great unless its role is great, “nations are not destroyed by losing wars, if the nation's morals are destroyed then that nation is destroyed,”

It is a popular notion that “Zardari is heavy on all” and “If he eats, he also works”.

Corruption films have been made on such people as they have destroyed the morals of the nation.

Calls from people began at 4 pm and were broadcasted live on television, radio and digital media.

This is the fourth time the prime minister has interacted with the people via telephone calls.
