Former Pakistan PM Nawaz Sharif held ousted Prime Minister Imran Khan responsible for the ruined Pakistani economy.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo and former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Thursday lashed out at recently ousted Imran Khan while addressing a gathering with Pakistan People's Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari in London.
Nawaz Sharif, who is also the elder brother of current premier Shehbaz Sharif, held ousted Prime Minister Imran Khan responsible for the ruined Pakistani economy and said that much of his discussion with Bilawal Bhutto was on resurrecting the crashed economy.
"This four year period that we have seen, I have not seen such a period in my life. Somebody should ask the Pakistani people, are they getting bread, the poor should be asked are they getting medicines, are they getting sugar, somebody ask if their children are going to school... somebody please ask and tell me are they (the poor) able to pay the electricity bills," Sharif said.
He further said the exchange rate of the Pakistani rupee has been ruined and that it will take a long time to take the Pakistani Rupee back to its previous place.
