Planning Minister Ahsan Iqbal said on Saturday that all pillars of the state want to see the prosperity and stability in the country.

Expressing his thoughts on Samaa TV, Iqbal warned the opponents against spreading the political unrest in the country. “There is a dire need to stop indulging in the things that lead towards the uncertainty in the country,” he said.

He lambasted the embattled Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), saying, “The PTI’s civil disobedience movement will fail again in the same way it did before.”

Iqbal stated, “The system of the country is running, and there is no threat to it.”

Few days back, Iqbal said that he feels that the governor’s rule should be imposed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).

Expressing his thoughts on Samaa TV, Iqbal took a jibe at the embattled party, saying, “They [PTI leaders] cannot even gather 1,000 people if not in power in KP. The people made their way to Islamabad from KP for the sake of money.”

“The PTI lawyers are continuously delaying the trials. The PTI founder and his leadership are looking to get the NRO,” said Iqbal.

He said, “It is up to the court to grant bail to the PTI founder, not the government.”
