The tale of Fed. Minister Faisal Vawda and the Military Boot
15th of January, 2020
ISLAMABAD: In order to mock its unconditional support to the three bills related to Army, Navy and Air Force chiefs’ tenures, Federal Minister for Water Resources Faisal Vawda placed a Military Boot on the table during a TV talk show saying PML-N was lying down to kiss the boot.
“I am going to bring this to every talk show. This is how democratic the PML-N is. They lay down to kiss the boot,” the minister held. Vawda maintained that supporting Army was PTI’s stance from day one for the sake of nation: “You should have respected them from day one like we did. You talk against them, spew your hatred against them, you talk even when they lay down their lives as martyrs. Is there any shame? Any respect?”
He said the PML-N had lied down and kissed the boot in order to save their corruption: “It cannot be shined by human hands. The limit to which they have stooped, it looks like the boot has been shined by their tongues. When it comes to your corruption or your accountability, you are ready to lie down and kiss the boot. You will stoop as low as needed.” Other participants of the talk show – Qamar Zaman Kaira of PPP-P and Javed Abbasi of PML-N – walked out.
