Imran Dividing Pakistani Society: Kh Asif.

ISLAMABAD -- Minister for Defence Khwaja Muhammad Asif in Monday's National Assembly sitting blamed PTI's Chief Imran Khan for creating divide in and outside the country.

Because of creating divide in the society, a member from Canadian parliament maligned institutions of Pakistan and leaders, said the minister, on a point order over the statement of a Canadian parliamentarian against Pakistan and its institutions.

The minister urged the Canadian government to take notice of the irresponsible statement of a Canadian Parliamentarian Tom Kmiec. 'We have a decades old reverence relations with Canada. The government of Canada ought to look into this matter. I believe this is the voice of a single Parliamentarian and not the view of their whole Parliament,' said the minister, mentioning that Canadian Parliamentarian Tom Kmiec targeted Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa and talked about the internal situation in Pakistan.

About former prime minister Imran Khan, he said that lobbies at the behest of Imran Khan were active in Canada, USA, UK and other countries. 'He (Imran Khan) has no respect for the country,' he remarked. 'It never happened in the past history of the country, as his (Imran Khan) members are bashing on streets of London, Montreal, UAE and other countries. Even the premises of Masjid-eNabvi (SAW) not spared,' he remarked.

The minister further said a member of the Canadian Parliament during a scheduled visit of Pakistan's Army Chief has made this criticism. The Canadian parliamentarian Tom Kmiec not only talked against Pakistan in reference to human rights but also spoke on other matters.

He said, 'The Canadian parliamentarian felt pain of human rights in Pakistan but it and western countries could not see what is happening with Muslims in Indian Occupied Kashmir, Palestine, inside India and Muslim population of Rohingya.'

About the statement of the Canadian parliamentarian, he said these remarks of a Canadian lawmaker provoked him to say that Canada itself leading among G-7 countries when it comes to attacks on Muslims due to this phobia.
