While speaking in Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) jalsa in Mingora, Swat National Assembly opposition leader said, "Imran Khan had said that he would end corruption from the country within 90 days of coming into power, but nothing happened," said Shahbaz. "The seat of the premier remains empty in the Parliament just like the pockets of the masses."

“Against the assumption, all parties within the PDM are united,” he clarified.

He was of the view that the incumbent government left "no stone unturned in destroying the people of Pakistan." 

"Inflation has skyrocketed. Pakistan has never seen such a condition before," he said, adding that despite promising the provision of five million houses for the poor, not a single brick has been laid by the government.

He said that ever since Imran Khan took over, the country has been going through “historical poverty.”

"Prime Minister said he would create 10 million jobs but instead left people unemployed," he said.

"This is certainly not Pakistan that the Quaid-e-Azam had envisioned."

The PML-N president also glorified the previous, PML-N-led government and quoted comparative statistics, adding that the "old Pakistan" was much better than the "Naya Pakistan."
