Pakistan: Wattoo criticizes Nawaz's new BMW

Punjab PPP President Mian Manzoor Ahmed Wattoo said purchase of two new bullet proof BMW vehicles for the VVIP is a clear justification of government’s insincerity with the public. He pointed out that the purchase of the vehicles was at public expense. In a country where 54 percent people are leading their lives below the poverty line and about 30 percent are acutely food insecure, such expenditures are out of question, he added. He mentioned that the despicable aspect of this purchase was that the cabinet pool had sufficient number of bullet proof vehicles for the VVIP duties.
