'Q' mess can't be removed in 3 months: Sherry

KARACHI - Federal Information Minister Sherry Rehman Friday rejected the allegations levelled by the PML-Q leaders in white paper against the PPP-led coalition government, saying that the mess of PML-Q five-year government could not be removed in three months.

Addressing a press conference at a local hotel here, she said that today the government was facing economic problems due to the previous government wrong policies and the PPP government with better planning was trying to control the economics crisis inherited from the previous regime.

She said wheat flour scandals, stock exchange crisis, steel mill scandal and sugar crisis were inherited to the PPP government due to the flawed policies of the PML-Q government. She said the previous regime spent money on their minister’s luxuries and only made tall claims about the foreign investment, adding that when the PPP formed government, it inherited all the crises from the previous regime and the PPP led government was trying to resolve the crises by providing better facilities to the people.
