Opposition should come out of childish politics, play serious role in House: Farrukh

ISLAMABAD (92 News) - State Minister for Information Farrukh Habib has said that the opposition should come out of childish politics and play a serious role in the House on Monday.

Speaking at "Meet the Press" in Lahore Press Club, Farrukh Habib said that inflation is breaking world records. "The government's efforts saved the people of Pakistan from this severe impact of inflation. We will go to the people on the basis of current government's performance in the next elections," he added.

He urged the opposition parties to abandon childish politics on electoral reforms and accept the reality of electronic voting machines and right of vote to overseas Pakistanis. He said that Prime Minister Imran Khan invited the opposition parties for a dialogue on electoral reforms from the floor of the National Assembly.

Farrukh Habib said the opposition has no justification now to stay away from the dialogue. He said the government has strengthened economy through its various wealth generation policies. He said the country’s foreign remittances today are 10 billion dollars higher than what the PML-N government left in 2018.

The state minister said the GDP growth was forecast at 1.5 per cent but the PTI government has achieved a growth of four percent while the exports have also risen tremendously.
