PTI did not run any campaign against army chief: Fawad Chaudhry.

LAHORE -- Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Vice President Fawad Chaudhry has said that his political party did not run any campaign against the army chief, media reported on Monday.

Fawad Chaudhry, while talking to the journalists today, said that PTI respects the army chief and it did not run any campaign against him. He said that the country cannot bear the consequences of ethnic riots.

He asked the caretaker Punjab chief minister Mohsin Naqvi to give his statements carefully instead of playing with the fire.

He said that Naqvi should give balanced statements and refrain from supporting the violence. Chaudhry added that the chief minister should stop spreading hatred against a specific community.

Reacting to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's statement, he said that the premier's statement is an attempt to create distance between the army and the nation. 'PTI has neither run any campaign against the army chief nor is planning to do it. PTI respects the army chief.'

The PTI vice president said that Imran Khan thinks if the military becomes weak then it will also make the country weaker. He expressed hopes to bring politics to normalcy.
