ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister’s Special Assistant on Information Firdous Ashiq Awan on Thursday condemned Rehbar Committee for what she said opposition alliance’s efforts to influence the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) by taking the electoral body hostage.
“We are not going to escape from accountability like others,” she said in a tweet.
رہبر کمیٹی جسے خود رہبری کی ضرورت ہے,مسلسل چور مچائے شور فلم کا فلاپ شو پیش کر رہی ہے۔الیکشن کمیشن آف پاکستان کو یرغمال بنا کر اثر انداز ہونے کی مذموم کوشش کی شدید مذمت کرتے ہیں۔ہم اپنے موقف اور نظریے پر ڈٹ کر کھڑے ہیں،دوسروں کی طرح احتساب سے راہ فرار اختیار کرنے والے نہیں۔

Commenting on her tweet, Ashan Iqbal, a Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) leader and a member of the Rehbar Committee, asked the PM’s Advisor to provide money trail and receipts of donations, referring to the foreign funding case against the ruling party.
