Raja asks Shahbaz Sharif to resign

Leader of the Opposition in the Punjab Assembly Raja Riaz has criticised the “good governance” of Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif in dengue-ridden Punjab and asked PML-N President Nawaz Sharif to replace his younger brother and depute some responsible personality of his party as chief minister.
He was addressing a press conference here at the residence of MPA Tariq Gujjar during his brief visit to the city. Raja Riaz said that Shahbaz Sharif was an illegal “tenant” of 22 provincial ministries and yet could not control dengue epidemic. He held chief minister responsible for all deaths due to dengue fever and added the chief minister was reluctant to get services of PPP MPAs for the control of this lethal virus.
He also criticized Mian Nawaz Sharif for leaving behind flood affected people of Punjab around Sutlej River and scoring points in Sindh flood affected areas.
He demanded resignation from chief minister for failing in all administrative grounds including law and order.
PPP leader Ch Muhammad Siddique, on the occasion, presented Rs200,000 to Raja Riaz for the flood affected people of Sindh.
