NAB directed to go ahead with indiscriminate accountability process in the country: PM Khan
During a meeting with anchorpersons, the prime minister said accountability will be held across the board and without any prejudice or discrimination.
PM Khan said if any member of the government is suspected of any indiscretion, they should also be held accountable.
The prime minister welcomed criticism of his government by saying it rather helps to resolve issues. Media has every right to criticise the government, but it should give the PTI government at least three months before criticising its performance, he added.
He promised that three months down the road, there will be a marked difference in the way the country is run.
The prime minister said none of his cabinet members was appointed permanently and could be shuffled on the basis of performance.

PM Imran Khan further vowed to cancel all agreements made against the national interest.
Replying to a question, the prime minister said the purpose of using the helicopter for travel to and from Banigala aims at saving citizens from the trouble of traffic holdups.
