ISLAMABAD: Minister for Information and Broadcasting Syed Shibli Faraz on Sunday termed the scheduled protest of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) outside the office of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) an attempt to intimidate state institutions, ARY News reported.
Addressing a press conference in Islamabad today, Shibli Faraz asked the PDM member parties to submit record of their foreign funding to the ECP instead of pressurizing the state institutions.
He said that the opposition parties were trying to mislead the people through demonstrations. The minister said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has submitted record of donations it received from workers and sympathizers abroad to ECP’s scrutiny committee.
He maintained that Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) were reluctant to submit the record of donations worth billions of rupees to ECP.
Shibli Faraz said that the opposition parties under the umbrella of the Pakistan Democratic Movement have become united to conceal their corruption.
