    ‘You are a victim of your own arrogance, makafat-e-amal’: Maryam Nawaz tells Khan

    Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) vice-president Maryam Nawaz has said to Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan that his “game is now over”.

    During a media talk outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC), Maryam Nawaz said, “Imran Khan believes there to be an international conspiracy against him, but he conspires against himself. Had he fulfilled his duty, there would be no reason to mobilise one million people. You just need to bring 10 people and complete your number.”

    “Four years are sufficient to show the performance of a person. Imran Khan should know that people have shown him the red card.”

    “You are the victim of your own arrogance, makafat-e-amal [karma], and not any conspiracy,” said Maryam.

     “You called out Nawaz’s politics. Today, the same Nawaz has beaten you by entering your homes while sitting abroad. Now you are the one paying visits to people with one or two seats.”

    Maryam said that Khan refused to visit the Hazaras and said he wouldn’t get blackmailed.

    Maryam said there is a “wave of neutrality” in the air these days. “We have heard this has upset some people. I didn’t realise a single word would bring down your 22-year struggle.”

    The PML-N leader further said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government and Imran Khan never allowed the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) or the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) to stay neutral.

    “You have always conspired. You want someone to complete your numbers, someone to keep you in the game, someone to manage the media for you, and someone to manage all the institutions for you,” said Maryam, adding, “If someone refuses to do this for you or doesn’t agree to do this, you call them animal. What message are you giving to the world?”

     Slamming the premier for his foul language and choice of words against the Opposition in his speeches, Maryam said, “I have heard his speeches and he sounds like a defeated man.”

    “You ridicule opponents. You oppose Maulana Fazlur Rehman. You mimic Bilawal. No one has ever used foul language the way Imran Khan does,” said Maryam.

    “PM looks like a joker while he’s at it. I urge mothers of my country not to let their children watch such speeches. I don’t want that our children should learn this culture of misbehavior,” said the PML-N leader.

    Fawad Chaudhry condemned for saying Dawn is part of international conspiracy against Pak

    Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry accused Dawn media group of being part of an international conspiracy against Pakistan.

    When anchorperson Absa Komal asked Fawad about media freedom in Pakistan and for an update on the investigation related to recent attacks on journalists in Islamabad, Fawad dodged the question and said, “Your institution [Dawn] is an active participant of an international conspiracy theory which works against Pakistan.” Fawad appeared on ‘News Eye with Absa Komal’ on Dawn News.

    “Your institution propagates an environment that works against the country, trying to take things out of context.”

    “Human Rights Watch (HRW) has written an entire article on PMDA and it says that there is five-year prosecution. When we inquired about it from HRW, they said it was entirely based on [Dawn’s] editorial,” said Fawad.

    Twitter reacted to the minister’s statement against Dawn.

    Journalist Benazir Shah tweeted, “The Info. Minister accuses Dawn of being part of an ‘international conspiracy’ to defame Pakistan, without presenting a shred of evidence to support his claim. On the other hand, there is enough evidence of increasing censorship against media.”

    Lawyer Aftab Alam questioned, “If govt is serious about media regulatory reforms, why is it keeping the process secret? Why not putting ‘Bill’ on the official page of @GovtofPakistan and sharing with stakeholders?”

    Another Twitter user wrote, “A journalist has a genuine concern? – Instead of addressing it just accuse them of being anti-state and dodge the question. This way you save yourself the embarrassment of giving a proper clarification which you clearly don’t have.”
