Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader Ahsan Iqbal has said that the Prime Minister Imran Khan-led government is in the “hands of” estranged ruling PTI leader Jahangir Tareen. Speaking to media in Narowal on Saturday, Ahsan said the PTI government is responsible for sugar, flour and other crises which led to increasing in food inflation in the country. “NRO is in the pocket of Jahangir Tareen..life of Imran Khan’s government rests with Tareen and he can take it away whenever he wants,” he added. Tareen said earlier this month that PM Imran assured his friends – the ruling party lawmakers who have rallied around the PTI’s disgruntled leader – that “he [PM] is monitoring my matter personally". "The premier assured that justice will be meted out," the PTI former secretary general said.
