Taking to Twitter, the former premier reiterated that he would not recognise the “Imported Govt” installed through conspiracy and horse trading. 

“How can Shehbaz Sharif be so shameless given his govt’s destruction in 10 mths [months] of our economy & democracy with brazen fascism, end of fundamental rights & rule of law; & allowing terrorism to spread under its watch,” he wrote. 

The PTI chief also shared a postcard detailing the actions taken by the PDM government against the party leaders and supporters, including journalists.

The letter was delivered by PTI stalwart Shibli Faraz to the President House in Islamabad. The resolution passed on Jan 29 by the PTI core committee was also attached with the letter. 

The deposed premier in a letter asked President Alvi to take notice of the alleged role of powerful circles in politics and take measures against human rights violations in the PTI leaders’ arrests.
