Former Pakistan PM Imran Khan praises PM Narendra Modi, calls Nawaz Sharif corrup

Former Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has once again praised the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, comparing Pakistan Muslim League (N) supremo Nawaz Sharif on the issue of corruption. A video has gone viral on the internet, in which former PM Imran Khan was seen talking about properties owned by Nawaz Sharif outside Pakistan (abroad). Launching a scathing attack on Nawaz Sharif, he said, "Apart from Nawaz (Sharif), no other leader in the world has the wealth worth of billions".

Addressing a public meeting, Imran Khan said, "Tell me about any one country whose prime minister or top leader has billions of assets outside the country even in our neighboring country, PM (Narendra) Modi How much property does he have outside India...?" He added, "No one can even imagine how much wealthy Nawaz Sharif is".

This is not the first time that Imran Khan has praised India. He was seen praising Indian foreign policy even before this. The former Pakistan PM had praised India for buying subsidized oil from Russia and said that his government was also working in the same direction with the help of an independent foreign policy. Imran Khan slammed the Pakistan Muslim League (N)-led government for "running around like a beheaded chicken in times of troubled economy".

Sharing information about the reduction in the prices of petrol and diesel in India, Imran Khan had tweeted, "Despite being part of QUAD, India withstood US pressure, and bought subsidized Russian oil to give relief to the public. The work our government was also trying to do with the help of an independent foreign policy."

Earlier, in April this year also, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief had lauded India as a 'Khudar Qaum' (self-respecting people) and said that no superpower can fix conditions for the neighboring country. However, he admitted that relations between India and Pakistan are not good.

Imran Khan had said that India and Pakistan got independence together, but Pakistan is being used like a tissue paper. " He also said that he is not anti-American, but the conspiracies are an 'attack on our sovereignty'.
