PTI Former Joint secretary Punjab announched to join PMLQ

Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaaf (PTI)'s former Joint Secretary Punjab and ticket holder from NA-97 Gujranwala Dr Zain Ali Bhatti called on Pakistan Muslim League-Q (PML-Q) leader and former Deputy Prime Minister Chaudhry Parvez Elahi at his residence here on Tuesday and announced to join the party along with his supporters reposing full confidence in the party leadership.

Welcoming them Dr Zain in the fold of the party, Elahi said that his party gains strength with joining of the youth. He said the so-called 'Khadam-e-A'ala' has completely failed due to his inefficiency, while situation in health, education and law and order side has deteriorated.

Elahi held Shahbaz responsible for deaths of poor patients on floors and doors of hospitals. He alleged that utilisation of funds of all departments on Orange Line and Jangla bus have destroyed health sector completely and that was the reason that neither there are medicines nor beds for patients in the hospitals. PML-Q Secretary General Tariq Bashir Cheema, Chaudhry Zaheeruddin Khan, Muhammad Basharat Raja, Dr Azeemuddin Lakhvi and others were present.

Moonis Elahi also welcome Dr Zain Ali Bhatti in Pakistan Muslim League-Q.

Moonis Elahi - Why KBD is For The Entire Pakistan

Ever wondered why we have such long hours of load shedding during the summer? We all know that Pakistan has no shortage of natural resources but it only lacks proper usage of the natural resources. Punjab, as the very name describes, five rivers which flow through the province has given it the name which is recognized all over the world. The province can prove to be host to eradication of load shedding from the entire country if the Kalabagh Dam is constructed. Moonis Elahi has once again highlighted the benefits our country can reap if the KBD ever becomes a reality.

Currently Moonis Elahi is the only politician vouching for the construction of Kalabagh Dam while the present PMLN Govt seems more interested in Bhasha Dam. It would not hurt if both dams are constructed but with the facts put forth by the young PMLQ politician, it certainly is lucrative and definitely aimed to benefit the entire country rather than just one region. Pakistan currently faces a lot of shortages and the issue of water shortage has started to surface now more than often. The Pakistan - India water treaty is one of the longest standing treaties between the two countries but lately the latter seems to find it amusing to revoke it.

While the Bhasha Dam, a project of the PMLN Govt aims to produce 4500 Megawatts of electricity, it is a very expensive project and can be a victim to shortage of budget in the middle of the project. The government would have to further apply for loans for its completion which means that the poor Pakistani will be pressed under more debt. We can only hope it doesn't meet the same fate as that of Nandipur. While the nation is confused whether the Bhasha Dam or Kalabagh Dam would be the most suitable solution for the nation, it has become more of a tug of war game where Moonis Elahi supporters favor KBD but PMLN supporters vote for Bhasha Dam.

Moonis Elahi, in most of his speeches has always urged his followers and the people of Pakistan to not think narrowly and support a cause because it is launched by their favorite leader. He has always said we must think as a nation and only support the cause for the sake of the nation. Unless we weed out the favoritism mentality Pakistan will still suffer and due to its suffering we as a nation will all suffer. It is time that Pakistani's study the facts and press the government to build dam which will be the dam for all Pakistanis.

Nawaz Sharif Becoming Worse Than a Dictator

During the era of PMLQ government, the leaders Moonis Elahi, Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi and Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain had ended the draconian law where prime minister vested the power to sack the heads of Public Sector Entities (PSE's) without any warnings. It was a rule widely practiced by the older PMLN and the slain Benazir Bhutto of PPP. The power to sack any head of the public sector was to simply terrorize them to obey any order issued by the government no matter how harmful it may be for the nation at large. 

Using the power before, Nawaz Sharif and Benazir Bhutto (late) had created unrest in the country and both were on a looting spree unstoppable by any state department. Moonis Elahi, a member of the parliament and son of former CM Punjab Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi has expressed deep concern over the powers Nawaz Sharif now possesses. The N League government has silently restored the 3 decades old power where the Prime Minister would sack PSE's heads without any reasoning. He said the misuse of this power is the reason why we see the Panama Gate scandal today. 

Had there been any head of state powerful enough to question him then, the flight of money which has now become a national issue would not have happened. Now Nawaz Sharif has become powerful once again and it is sign of increased corruption in future. Moonis Elahi shed light on one incident last year when SNGPL Chief Executive Arif Hameed was sent home packing without any previous notice. 

He was laid off his duties unceremoniously because he refused to sign agreements related to imports of LNG and its sale as it was not in the interest of Sui Northern Gas Pipelines Limited. Nawaz Sharif has become a dictator and doesn't take no for an answer. He only thinks about personal interests and not for the national cause. Honest government officers are finding it hard to work under his rule and the ones who resist are sacked without any notice.

PMLQ's young political leader Moonis Elahi is deeply concerned about the trends being set by the incumbent government. The negative trends will leave a mark for centuries to remove and the ill practice of using force over government institutions for personal gains will pave path for corrupt people to come in power. Our country will be destabilized very easily once we have corrupt people at the top looting the country without resistance. It will be hard for future politicians to weed out the corrupt practices PMLN is rooting today. We as a nation must stand against these practices today to save our future and the future of Pakistan.

Pakistan's Self Proclaimed Master of Finance Ishaq Dar Set Out to Destroy PSM

On 1st December Ishaq Dar ordered the Pakistan Steel Mills to settle its debts to the state owned banks as well as foreign creditors. In a drive to privatize National institutions, Pakistan Steel Mills has been finalized to be privatized and investors from China have shown interest to bid when its privatization process starts. 

Moonis Elahi pointed out that PSM has been reporting losses since a decade and neither the Zardari nor PMLN government could assign talented people to take its charge and bring it out of the mess it has fallen due to corruption. The workers have been staging protests as their salaries haven't been transferred since months. In a meeting held at Islamabad between the Finance Minister Ishaq Dar, PSM Management and Privatization Committee, the issue of PSM's outstanding debts was discussed. 

The minister issued orders for the steel mills to sell its assets and settle the Rs. 51 billion loan it owes. Moonis Elahi has said the nation is in shock over the news and widely questions if the Sharif brothers policies can make their personal steel mills to reap billions of profits a year, why are they hesitant to implement the same policies for a State owned company that could have saved it from destruction? If assets are sold, the company would further decline in value and it would soon be worthless. The country's largest industrial unit had been shut down for over a year and a half after SSGC had cut its gas supply over defaulting its Rs. 18 billion in terms of outstanding gas bills.

Dry Weather likely To continue Till January PMD Report

Punjab currently faces the driest winter ever witnessed. The cause ultimately is the climatic changes mainly due to "No Policy" on preserving ecology. The weather has affected most parts of the country with Punjab at the front. A top official at Pakistan Meteorological Department stated the weather would remain unchanged till January next year. He further warned the current weather would aggravate water shortage in the country.

While there still seems no concern by the PMLN government to make a national policy to counter the negative climatic changes faced by the country, no other politician other than Moonis Elahi raises concern over the issue. Vice President Dr. Ghulam Rasool, of World Meteorological Organisation (WMO), while speaking to the Express Tribune, a leading news site within the country, said that since September this year Pakistan has not received a good amount of rainfall. Even the northern areas which are hilly and mostly covered in snow during the winter have not received "Good Showers" and "Snowfall" is less expected to fall until January. While it is expected that some parts of the country will receive light to moderate rainfall, it is not enough to fulfill the need.

Under the current weather condition, days are warm while the nights are cold. For the winter season, this is not a good sign as due to clear skies the sun remains open throughout the day increasing the temperature. Clear skies mean less potential for rain in Punjab and less snowfall in the northern areas. Though PMD has warned of acute water shortage in the coming months, the concerned authorities have widely ignored these warnings, Moonis Elahi has once again raised his concern as we do not see any policy coming to shape regarding the abrupt changes in the climate of Pakistan.

For the first time ever Lahore had witnessed SMOG which was only due to cutting down of trees. To make roads for Lahore Metro Buses and destruction of plants in the city for the Orange Train, CM Lahore Shahbaz Sharif has caused an increase in the destruction of greenery in the city. Moonis Elahi has said time and again that unless the ecology system s kept in balance the country at large will face many climatic and health issues. People are reporting with ailments in hospitals mainly due to the dry weather. Dr Rasool has said the situation is alarming and the government should pay attention to it.

Moonis Elahi Says N League Govt Only Efficient In Announcing Shortfalls

N League government on Monday confirmed the stock of petrol and diesel in the country were sufficient only for 13 - 14 days which is much lower than the average 20 days which is mandatory before announcing an emergency of shortfall. So, it is without a doubt that the country would face another petrol crisis similarly it had faced on 27 January 2015.  

Moonis Elahi is of the view that the government should learn its priorities and as a democratic government it should focus on serving the people rather than serving itself. In case the country dries up of fuel the entire nation would be shook and businesses would come to a standstill. According to figures released by the ministry of petroleum in a recent press release, the country wide stock of motor gasoline (petrol) is just at 225,674 metric tonnes (MTs) which is sufficient only for 13 days as per current average demand which is around 17,500MTs per day's requirement.  

Moonis Elahi said for a government which boasts of productivity and achievements, it is a true picture of its inefficiency and inability to rule the country. It will be the second fiasco in its tenure and Nawaz Sharif has learnt nothing from the past and still lives in a delusional world. While his Darbaris only live to laud him pointlessly the country seems to be running only by Allah.  

Moonis Elahi further pointed out, likewise, the press release stated that the countrywide stock of high speed diesel (HSD) was 466,821MTs. As per the current per day usage of HSD, which is around 27,310MTs it is only sufficient for 17 days. Owing to such incompetent rulers, the nation would have to suffer the crisis while the PM and his aides would still be roaming in their luxury cars and helicopters. The ministry has reported that two vessels carrying 17,000MTs of motor gasoline were waiting for berthing but it is unfortunate they are still on the waiting list. 

They should be offloaded on priority basis as delays in its berthing would cause a total disturbance countrywide. The ministry's worksheet revealed that the total countrywide storage capacity was around 301,593 tonnes of consumption coverage which is only sufficient for 14 days. Moonis Elahi said "This is an alarming revelation and the government must take war footing steps to increase the storage capacity. It is the capacity which was built way back in PMLQ's tenure and since then no government has focused to increase the country's fuel storage capacity."

Pakistan NAVY Displays Its Vigil Thwarts Indian Submarine Attempt To Cross Boundary

Pakistan's army is recognized for its bravery and quick response at the time of distress and presently the Pakistan NAVY also displayed its exceptional skills by thwarting Indian NAVY submarine's attempt to cross the boundary. 

Moonis Elahi praised the NAVY for its exceptional display of quick response when the enemy though it was cunning enough to carry out its mission without anyone knowing it. The befitting response has clearly shown what Pakistan's protectors are capable of be it a matter of protecting the country's land, air space or seas. The nation has once again felt proud of its army and we know that whenever the enemy comes marching again it will be sent back in coffins.

It was a moment of joy and seemingly the victories of previous wars had become fresh. The nation rejoiced over the news and the Moonis Elahi official social media accounts were also the center of attention as people expressed their views and solidarity with the Pakistan NAVY. Such incidents prove that the Two Nation Theory was never wrong and people from both sides of the border still want to prove their nation is better than the other's. 

While Pakistan has always extended a hand of friendship towards India, but the latter has always come forth with bared teeth. It is evident that the neighbor has been sent a clear message that if it tries to mess with our security it will be pushed and it will be pushed hard.

PMLN Has Taken More Loans In Last 3 Years Than Ever Recorded In History

PMLN has broken all records of the past and it has become the first ever to take $24 Billion in loan. Moonis Elahi sarcastically praised the government to set a new record. The infamous "Kashkol" lives on and the incumbent government seems to have made it one of their most prized possessions. 

While on one end the PMLN media representatives glorify their supreme leader of being of the most successful PM ever, the facts go against these false claims. We can still hear Nawaz Sharif's pre election speeches ringing in our ears as if it were just yesterday when he bashed Zardari accusing him of taking the Kashkol to beg for loans, now he is doing the same but even more aggressively.

PMLQ's young politician Moonis Elahi is no mathematician or economist but when he says the economy is wrecked due to excessive debt servicing policy of the PMLN, he isn't wrong in pointing out the grave danger that lies ahead. While most seasoned politicians say they do not consider the young politicians worthy to be heard, it is the very attitude which is leading Pakistan towards its economic destruction. It is common sense that when you take loans at a hefty price and instead of repaying it, borrow some more and keep on taking loans the economy will be ruined and it will take many generations to repay the debt and live a harsh life.

Turkish president asked Nawaz Sharif to remove the entire Turkish staff and management from these schools.

Pak Turk schools are one of the finest schools in Punjab and parents of the children studying there have expressed satisfaction over the way they are run. In a recent incident the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan claimed that the NGO under which the schools are being operated have found to be linked with US based cleric Fethullah Gulen the very person who tried to impose a military coup in Turkey. 

Following the claim the Turkish president asked Nawaz Sharif to remove the entire Turkish staff and management from these schools. Following orders like an obedient servant the premier made haste and cancelled the visas of staff working there. Moonis Elahi expressed his view that in such matters a proper road map must be created before taking any steps that would affect the citizens.

Nawaz Sharif is known to be a personal friend with Erdogan rather than just having political friendship. the abrupt decision has shocked the nation and parents have become concerned about the quality of education in the country. A parent of children studying in a Pak Turk school campus Mr. Akbar said "the children have become mentally stressed at such a tender age following the news. 

Children get attached to their teachers and the news of them being kicked out of the country has made them sad. The PM should have handled the matter in a more sophisticated manner". Moonis Elahi has always said that the PMLN government does not care about the citizens but always works for its personal benefits and this is a very clear example. Only 2 days remain for the teachers to leave Pakistan or else they would be arrested.

Moonis Elahi Reacts to Curtailment of Punjab Gas Supply

Punjab houses the largest textile industry in Pakistan whose core necessity is Gas. Without it, the industry would not function properly and profits can be turned to losses. Punjab's government should ensure proper gas supply to factories even in the winter season because without the industries functioning properly many people would be unemployed. 

Moonis Elahi wonders why does CM Shahbaz Sharif fail in every winter to provide the industries with the required amount of gas to run without hindrance. Moonis Elahi Said It is the third term of Mr. Shahbaz Sharif as the CM of Punjab and he has yet again failed to address the issue with a concrete plan.

Moonis Elahi Expresses Grief Over Jehangir Badar's Death

PPP's senior leader Jehangir Badar's death occurred on Sunday 13 November 2016 due to cardiac arrest. The senior leader was a close aide of Benazir Bhutto and was always in the center light whenever he stepped on the stage. Moonis Elahi expressed grief and sorrow over his death and said "despite our political differences, he was a good person and I pray may his soul rest in peace".  

Lately Jehangir Badar had reduced his political activities due to his ailment but he was still not forgotten in the political world of Pakistan. He was an avid supporter of democracy and had even been imprisoned during Gen Zia ul Haq's martial law. It is a day PPP has lost a loyal leader who never backed out even in tough times.

Moonis Elahi Says CPEC Completed Due to Gen Raheel Sharif's Efforts

Gawadar received its first Chinese convoy on 12 Nov 2016. Moonis Elahi congratulated the people of Balochistan as the army led CPEC will surely bring prosperity in the province that has long suffered ignorance. Opening an international trade route always benefits the people of the region economically and socially. 

India tried to sabotage the project through various antics but has failed in its evil plans.

Pakistan on the whole will reap its rewards and Gen Raheel Shareef will be remembered as the cwho has helped Pakistan establish an international trade route with its closest ally China. Moonis Elahi says even the incumbent government acknowledges it was not capable to have completed the project had the army not helped.

PMLN Law Minister Rana Sanaullah Misusing Powers to Grab Land

Punjab Law Minister hailing from Faisalabad Rana Sanaullah and his relatives are identified to be involved in land grabbing activities. Pakistan Muslim League (Quaid) PMLQ Punjab Information Secretary Akram Chaudhry said the law minister must look at the mess in his own district before pointing fingers towards others. 

PMLQ's young leader Moonis Elahi also expressed concerns that if a minister gets involved in breaking the law, how do we expect him to uphold the law. The people look for justice towards the law minister and if his family is given a free hand to commit crimes then how can a common man expect anything from the law.

Pakistan is already a victim of lawlessness thanks to the corrupt policies of N League which is in Govt now. While the PM Nawaz Sharif's case is being heard in the Apex court of Pakistan against his undeclared wealth and investments in off shore companies, the country on the whole seems to have no rule of law. 

Street crimes have increased in Punjab and Moonis Elahi had said Former Chief Minister Punjab Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi had formed an exceptional police force to combat such crimes. There is evident proof that the traffic wardens had issued challans to parliament members who violated traffic laws but today no police officer has the power to stop an MPA or MNA while ministers are completely out of their reach.

Moonis Elahi Booked For Supporting Opposition

Alleging Moonis Elahi of sending truck load of sticks and party flags, Islamabad police have registered an FIR against him. As oppositions parties form alliance to pressurize incumbent Govt in corruption case and to force premier to appear before the court for accountability, situation worsens in the capital. 

PMLN is all set to use brute force against protesters. Scores of police personnel have been shifted to the capital to restrict protesters from entering the capital. Instead of taking sensible measures to cope with the worsening situation, the Govt has resort to dictatorship tactics. Moonis Elahi being a parliamentarian sitting on opposition benches in Punjab has been targeted with prejudice.

Terminating Pervaiz Rasheed is What Nawaz Sharif Is Only Capable To Do

Minutes of a highly classified meeting between PMLN and the establishment was leaked from the Prime Minister house. Its appearance in Dawn newspaper sparked outrage among the nation and the Govt was asked to bring forth the person who committed the crime. It is highly speculated that the minutes were given to Cyril Almeida on orders of Maryam Safdar, Nawaz Sharif's daughter with the purpose of defaming Pakistani Army.


Moonis Elahi denied to comment on rumors but said terminating Pervaiz Rasheed is not the answer this nation seeks. He (Rasheed) was treated the same way Rana Sanaullah was treated in the Model Town case. Nawaz Sharif uses his party workers as scapegoats and to make the cases more complex. It is not impossible to expose the person who handed over the confidential documents to the journalist. Negative attitude shown by the Prime Minister house on this issue raises skepticism.

Moonis Elahi Says PMLN Govt Artificially Inflating Reserves

The present government of PMLN has acquired $26.8 billion in terms of loan during its 3 years regime. Instead of bringing a steadfast policy to improve the Industries and Agriculture in the country, the situation is worsening and exports are declining rapidly. It is worsening the financial situation and finance minister Ishaq Dar, instead of doing something to revive our industries, travels around the world begging for loans.


Moonis Elahi criticized PMLN's senseless ways of running the state as these loans have not been used for the betterment of the country but is largely spent on their trips to foreign countries and living a king like lifestyle. Repaying the loan would require many generations but unfortunately the nation would have none of its benefits to enjoy as Artificially Inflated Reserves badly damage the economy.

Moonis Elahi Rubbishes PMLN's Stubbornness Over Nawaz Sharif's Leadership

Amid tensions growing over Nawaz Sharif's family owned offshore companies, PMLN's political workers and should choose a new leader. Moonis Elahi terms it PMLN's foolishness to defend their leader when his family members have been named in the Panama Papers. It is evident that the offshore companies were formed through embezzled money flown from Pakistan using illegal channels to buy property and provide a luxurious lifestyle to the premier's children in London.


Money looted from Pakistan should be brought back in the country and used where it was intended. Pakistan already suffers great debt from worldwide loan issuers. If the looted amount is returned to the country Pakistan would be in a position to return the loan and would be on the road to prosperity. Moonis Elahi iterates PMLN's political workers should press their leader to surrender his ill gotten wealth to the nation for its betterment and progress. Their stubbornness and constant support to a corrupt leader is caused tremendous harm to the nation.

Moonis Elahi Condemns PMLN's White Elephant on Pakistan's Economy

Amid heavy criticism PMLN still took the step to build Islamabad Metro Bus. It was always said that such a mega project should be constructed in a heavily populated city such as Lahore or Karachi. Pakistan's metropolis Karachi faces a huge transportation crisis and knowing the facts, PMLN's government still took the step to please some influential people and for personal gains. In the process of building the Islamabad Metro many buildings were razed and people were denied of their ancestral buildings.

When the plan had been unveiled as a blessing for the nation, Moonis Elahi had predicted the project would prove to be a huge loss. Time has proven it's accuracy and now it is reported that the white elephant has produced a record 2.4 billion loss. It is a huge blow to the already Pakistan's crumbling economy. Feeding the project with loans taken from IMF and World Bank against other projects which would have really benefited the public has been blown off on a failed project.

Moonis Elahi Condemns Quetta Terrorist Attack

At least 59 police cadets have died and more than 110 were injured when a team of heavily armed terrorists stormed a police training academy in Quetta. Pakistan has long suffered terrorist attacks but the PMLN Govt seems unable to control it. Moonis Elahi has strongly condemned the attack which happened in the wee hours on Monday. 


The nation stands with the families of the affected and Moonis Elahi has vowed to make efforts to punish the culprits. His family also witnessed a terrorist attack when his grandfather Chaudhry Zahoor Elahi was murdered. Pakistan needs a National Action Plan to get rid of this menace but unfortunately Nawaz Sharif and his companions are too busy plundering to think about the citizens.

Moonis Elahi Calls For Efforts To Build Kalabagh Dam

As India speeds up its drive to create problems for Pakistan, it has declared to revoke the Indus water treaty. This act would cause shortage of water within Pakistan hence forcing it to the brink of drought. Pakistan has taken up the case to World Bank to stop India from constructing illegal dams on the Neelum and Chenab rivers.

Kalabagh Dam is a proposed hydroelectric dam to be built on the river Indus at Kalabagh in the Mianwali district of Punjab province. it is debated that if the dam would be constructed it can produce 3600 megawatts of electricity approximately. as time passes on the water shortfall threat from India increases and Moonis Elahi urges Pakistani Politicians to get serious on the matter of KBD and start its construction for the larger interest of Pakistan.
