Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader Khurram Dastgir said on Friday that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif had to face "injustice".
Speaking exclusively on Samaa TV, the former power minister said: “Under the guise of experimentation for bringing the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief into power, the country’s democracy was derailed and the country’s economy was dragged into a quagmire.”
“Nawaz Sharif had said on his return to the country that his party would not allow anyone to play with the country’s fate,” he said.

Recalling the May 9 mayhem, Dastgir asserted, “The PTI chief wanted to capture state power on May 9.”

He said, “The PTI chief was not fighting for civilian supremacy. It is only Nawaz Sharif who has struggled for the sake of civilian supremacy.”
“We will take steps for the supremacy of parliament if voted into power,” Dastgir maintained.
– Nothing to do with inflation –

He was of the view that the country was moving forward gradually.
