THE entire nation watches in shock how Nawaz Sharif has been behaving, making inflammatory statements against state institutions. He is calling our elected prime minister ‘selected’.

I believe his statements should not be telecast by any Pakistani TV channel, just as was the case with another London-based politician.

Nawaz Sharif talks about the ‘enemy’. Anyone can guess who he is referring to. He has openly announced that his movement is not against Imran Khan but against those who have brought him to power. This is a thinly-veiled warning and accusation against the establishment, which, needless to say, is held in great esteem by the nation. There can be little doubt about Nawaz Sharif’s negative intentions.
