“I wanted a man who did not go to London to spend his holidays,” he said while referring towards the Sharif family and said that previously a ‘Bollywood actor’-referring to Shahbaz Sharif- used to portray himself as a savior by spending millions in terms of advertisement.

He said that there was no comparison between them and Usman Buzdar as currently, efforts are being made to elevate the unprivileged areas of the province.

“I assure you that this would not have happened previously in Punjab,” he said adding that previous leaders invested in foreign assets and kept their children abroad while Usman Buzdar established shelter homes for people who used to sleep on footpaths within days of being asked.
