It was mocked in the press conference that why do not we ask for aid, our water was the right of the farmers of Punjab, which was sacrificed for politics
Lahore:
Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz has said that when a disaster struck, salt was sprinkled on the wounds of Punjab, when I say my own water, it means the water of Punjab.
She said this while addressing the inauguration ceremony of the Phase II project of electric buses in Lahore.
She said that the fare of these buses is very modest, they are equipped with internet facility, its fare has been kept at just twenty rupees, more electric buses will also be provided in Lahore, the development of Punjab is my mission, electric buses in Lahore are a gift for the people, travel in electric buses will be free for special people and senior citizens.
The Punjab Chief Minister said that I was told that when I say my own water, it is not the water of the nobility, it is the water of Punjab.
I came to know that 500 people died in KP due to cloudburst. I called Ali Amin Gandapur from Thailand and asked him how Punjab can help you. Today, the disaster has come upon us. Salt has been sprinkled on Punjab’s wounds. When our relief operations were going on in Punjab, we were ridiculed in the press conference.
Maryam Nawaz said that I was being told why I did not seek help from international organizations? When there is an intention to serve the people, there is no need to extend a hand to anyone. The people of KP are also our people, but by misleading them, they were brought out against Punjab. This is racism.
The Chief Minister of Punjab said that our water was the right of the farmers of Punjab, which was sacrificed for politics. The people of Punjab can not be left alone. If you speak against them, you will get a strong response. Maryam Nawaz raised her voice for the rights of her people, so Maryam Nawaz will never apologize. Those who criticized us during the provision of relief in Punjab should apologize.
