PM Shehbaz Sharif slams Imran Khan for poisoning minds of Pakistanis with his speeches targeting state institutions

Islamabad: Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif slammed PTI chief and former PM Imran Khan for "poisoning" the minds of Pakistanis with his speeches targeting state institutions.

"The nation has been divided as Khan repeatedly called [the then-Opposition and now government] thieves and dacoits," PM Shehbaz said while speaking during the first regular session of the National Assembly since the new government's formation as quoted by Geo News.

Terming Khan's Abbottabad speech "dangerous", PM Shehbaz said the PTI chairman told his supporters that Nawab Siraj-ud-Daulah's commanders-in-chiefs were "Mir Jafar and Mir Sadiq", which is a direct reference to Pakistan's institutions.

"There can be nothing [wrost] than the words he used for the institutions in his speech," the prime minister said, slamming Khan for spewing venom against the institutions, which was tantamount to "conspiracy".
