Summary Ziaullah Afridi begs on roads for development and progress of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as protest
PESHAWAR: (Dunya News) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) dissenting leader Ziaullah Afridi has on Saturday started to beg on roads for the development of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) as a protest against his party, reported Dunya News.
In his unique style of protesting, Ziaullah Afridi has come on roads begging for the development of KP as the provincial government doesn’t provide him with the development funds. He said that the provincial government wasn’t providing him with the funds and he was forced to beg as a result.
Afridi said that the Peshawar’s district government was established one year ago yet no development work has been done as yet. He asked why KP Chief Minister (CM) Pervaiz Khattak had blocked the funds. He also complained that nobody was questioning the chief minister over his actions. He announced that he’d collect the money by begging from people and use the funds for the city’s development.
The former minister for minerals started his campaign from Bashirabad and adjacent areas. Citizens provided him with charity worth thousands of rupees. With a begging bowl in his neck, Afridi begged for alms from shopkeepers and people driving cars.
