Nawaz has India’s support in order to ‘weaken the army’: PM Khan

Prime Minister Imran Khan has claimed that PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif has India’s support to ‘weaken the army’. In an interview with a local news channel he said that Nawaz is playing a dangerous game; ‘Altaf Hussain played the same game’. The PM added that relations between government and military are the “best in history” because all institutions are working in their spheres.

“Whose interest is it that our army weakens? Our enemies,” he added, saying some “foolish liberals” were agreeing with Nawaz’s narrative.

He said Nawaz was creating a “huge fitna (mischief)” by attacking the army.

“He (Nawaz) is becoming the next Altaf Hussain. He is a coward, I am sure he has support [from India],” he said.

“I am so angry that he went abroad by lying shamelessly. All kinds of lies were told that he is about to die, [his] platelets are low, etc.” which led the government to allow him to leave, the premier added.
