Imran Khan
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday blamed mistrust of government as the reason behind people’s decision to not pay taxes.

Addressing an event at Shaukat Khanum Cancer Hospital, the PTI chief said the people of Pakistan are the country’s real strength.

“Unfortunately, instead of spending on people, [the government] chose to spend on palaces. We need a government that spends people’s money on the people themselves,” he vowed.

Khan expressed confidence that once such a [welfare] government comes into power, the public will not hesitate to pay taxes.

Criticising on US President Donald Trump, he said “such people have only one purpose: to make money.”

The PTI chairman said his late mother’s battle with cancer gave him the strength to build a cancer hospital in the country. The dire state of the hospitals he saw saddened him, he said.

Khan lamented that there was a time when Pakistan was making exemplary progress. “When I used to return to Pakistan after playing cricket in India, it used to seem I had come from a poor country to a rich one, but now [they are far ahead] of us.”
