Politicians should reveal their assets, Chief Ministers agrees to Imran Khan

Lahore, November 1: Shahbaz Sharif, the Chief Minister of Punjab agrees with the demand of Imran Khan, the Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) that political leaders should make their assets public in order to eliminate corruption.

Imran Khan addressed to the huge procession at Minar-e-Pakistan on Sunday, which was organized by PTI, and put forward his demands from the political leaders. He emphasized on the issue that political leaders have been collecting wealth through corruption
and have deposited it in foreign accounts.

The money of the nation is being transferred and consumed in foreign countries by the corrupt politicians. This stance of Imran is appreciated by Shahbaz Sharif as the Chief Minister said that assets of the politicians should be made public.

Shahbaz further said that he revealed his assets four years ago in 2007 and also demanded that the leaders of Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) should also declare their assets. He said that the government leaders are involved in corruption and they should immediately
reveal their assets.   

Imran made it quite clear in his address to thousands of people that corruption in form will not be tolerated at all. He also warned the political leaders of the country that the PTI will launch a protest against the corrupt politicians if they do not reveal
their assets in a period of few months.

Chief Minister welcomed the proposal of Imran and said that he has already declared hi assets when he returned to country after exile. Now the political leaders in PPP should declare their assets which are in Pakistan or in any other countries.

Shahbaz also emphasized on the bank defaulters, who got big amounts as loans and have not yet returned those loans. Chief Minister also expressed that the money of politicians which is in foreign banks should be brought back in this period of financial crisis.

He also said that all details of the assets of politicians should be made public and every person in the country has the right to know it. He also put emphasis on accountability of the defaulters and political leaders who are involved in corruption.
