Denigrating any individual or institution that does not agree with its point of view has become a hallmark of the ruling party. PTI ministers, as a reaction, came out swinging in a press conference where they challenged the ECP to prove its impartiality in the Senate elections. The government has been at loggerheads with the ECP for a while. The PTI’s foreign funding case has picked up some steam after over six years of being practically shelved, with numerous hearings leading nowhere. The PM should take responsibility for his shortcomings rather than malign independent state institutions that are simply doing their job.
