Salik Hussain advises Maryam Nawaz against playing ‘women card’ in politics
Islamabad: Federal Minister for Overseas Pakistanis Chaudhry Salik Hussain has advised Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz not to play the ‘women card’ in politics. Geo News reported that he made the remarks on Wednesday on the programme ‘Capital Talk’.
Salik Hussain said that if one is in politics, one should not play the women card. According to him, the things the chief minister said about him were not befitting a person holding a public office.
The federal minister said the chief minister had made her statement on the basis of incorrect information. He made clear that he would not withdraw his earlier statement on corruption in Punjab, as it was based on facts.
He said: ‘I will never take back my statement because it is the truth.’
On corruption, Salik Hussain said there should have been a policy of zero tolerance against it from the first day. He said that since his statement, corruption has not ended but has become more visible.
