Imran Khan On Sharifs, "Not Seen Such Acting Even In Films": Report

Islamabad, Jul 24: In the last leg of the pre-poll campaigning, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chairman Imran Khan urged Pakistan voters to support his party to "change the fate of Pakistan at any cost."

Addressing a rally on Monday, Mr Khan claimed that all "status quo" parties were coming together to dislodge Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf in the elections, The News International reported.

Taking on the Sharif family, he said, "When I was a child; the US dollar was 5 (Pakistani) rupees. Today it is over 130 (Pakistani) rupees. Their children have become billionaires and have looted this country and left it behind."

He further claimed that former Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif was enacting a drama to prove his innocence.

"Now, they (Sharif and daughter Maryam Nawaz) say they are being bitten by mosquitos in Adiala and are feeling the heat because they don't have ACs. I have not seen acting like this even in films," he added.

The cricketer-turned-politician also said that the Sharif family looted billions of money from the country and took them abroad.

Mr Khan also alleged that the former Punjab government did not undertake any development projects and was fooling the people through advertisements, Geo TV reported.

He claimed that the education sector of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) was better than other provinces in Pakistan.

"KP has a (Pakistani) Rs. 110 billion developmental budget. There are 9,000 doctors in the province. We made 50 new colleges and 10 new varsities," he said.

The deadline for campaigning by all the parties has come to an end. Pakistan is all set go to polls on Wednesday.

May 15: Global deaths linked to the novel coronavirus passed 300,000 on Thursday, while reported cases of the virus are approaching 4.5 million, according to a news agency tally.

About half of the fatalities have been reported by the United States, the United Kingdom and Italy.

The first death linked to the disease was reported on January 10 in Wuhan, China. It took 91 days for the death toll to pass 100,000 and a further 16 days to reach 200,000, according to the Reuters tally of official reports from governments. It took 19 days to go from 200,000 to 300,000 deaths.

By comparison, an estimated 400,000 people die annually from malaria, one of the world’s most deadly infectious diseases.

The United States had reported more than 85,000 deaths from the new coronavirus, while the United Kingdom and Italy have reported over 30,000 fatalities each.

While the current trajectory of COVID-19 falls far short of the 1918 Spanish flu, which infected an estimated 500 million people, killing at least 10% of patients, public health experts worry the available data is underplaying the true impact of the pandemic.
