LAHORE: The PML-N has asked Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan not to use the caretaker set-up for his party’s political gains.

Reacting to Mr Khan’s letter to Caretaker Prime Minister (retired) Justice Nasirul Mulk over the issue of power and water crises in the country, PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb said in a statement here on Friday that the caretaker government was bound to stay impartial as it could not be influenced by any political party.

She said Imran Khan wanted to use the caretaker set-up for his own political gain.

Mr Khan has asked the caretaker premier to share the exact situation of the electricity crisis and circular debt with the nation.

Ms Aurangzeb challenged Mr Khan to tell people about the performance of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government. The PML-N added more than 10,000MW to the system, she said.
