PM questions ECL nightmare of some lawmakers

ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan Thursday questioned that why some of the lawmakers were so scared of the Exit Control List (ECL) and keen to go abroad.

“Why are some of our lawmakers so scared of the ECL? Why are they so keen to go abroad,” he asked in a tweet.

The prime minister said there was so much work to be done by politicians in Pakistan – the land they claim to love.
However, he observed that some lawmakers could not wait to take frequent trips abroad and they had iqamas or residencies abroad.
“Can anyone explain this strange phenomenon to those of us who would be quite happy to remain in and work for Pakistan because we actually love Pakistan,” the prime minister remarked.
