From Asim Bajwa To Zulfi Bukhari: 6 Assets’ Revelations Made By Imran Khan’s Cabinet That’ll Make You Go “Whaaaaaat?”

Prime Minister Imran Khan’s advisers and special assistants declared their assets and the cabinet division made the details public on its website a few days ago. Ever since, the opposition and the public, both have been lambasting the incumbent government for some seriously contentious disclosures.

We went through the heaps of critique doing rounds on social and conventional media and developed a list of the 6 most valid criticisms.

1. Well, Asim Bajwa, SAPM on Information and Broadcasting, owns a car that normally costs more than Rs. 300 lacs. But as per his details, it’s only worth Rs. 30 lacs.

According to #SAPM Retiered General #AsimBajwa sb, the car Toyota ZX is for Rs. 30 lac. #SpecialAssistanceToThePrimeMinister pic.twitter.com/YoUSf5c6ak

2. Not just this, but Asim Bajwa’s agricultural land of 35 acres is just worth Rs. 500,000!

If only I’d known 35 acres of agricultural land was so cheap, I would’ve been a big shot landlord myself by now!

According to assets detail of Asim bajwa he brought land crusier 2016 model in just 30 lakh and 35 acres of agricultural land in just 500000.

All I can say is that maybe he’s not that good with zeros.

3. Abdul Hafeez Shaikh who serves as Advisor to Prime Minister Imran Khan on Finance and Revenue has all his investments in foreign currencies.

Well, why go for your own depreciating currency when you know the risks beforehand, huh? Good going, Mr. Sheikh. *slooow claps*

It all makes sense now.

Hafeez Shaikh is quite content with Pakistan’s depreciating currency; after all, he keeps all his investments in foreign denominated currencies. That is why every time he is in charge, Pak currency depreciates further. pic.twitter.com/6jQ1BSuBaB

4. SAPM on Political Communication, Dr. Shahbaz Gill is a green card holder, has a property of over Rs. 110m. Dr. Gill also owns 130 tolas of gold.

Hai…these rich folks make me feel very useless…

I remember once Shahbaz Gill said to me when i asked him a critical question ‘Ehtasab to unka bhi hona chaiy jo mehngi ring pehnty hain’ while staring at my wedding ring. Today i get to know he owns 130 Tola gold. pic.twitter.com/l7CJ9RjEHX

5. Out of 20, at least four aides to the PM hold dual nationalities.

Remember the whole iqama spat a couple of years ago when PTI objected to people with foreign work permits to serve in the parliament?

Guess it’s turn for PTI to answer why foreign nationals are serving in Pakistan’s federal cabinet…

5. Shehzad Qasim (US Citizen)

PR:
1. Nadeem Chan (Canada)
2. Moeed Yousaf (US)

PR & Citizenship are DIFFERENT See:https://t.co/6ucp1sR0CN

As per 63-1(c), Parliamentarian CANT have dual citizenship. Though, NO such LAW for an SAPM, but question of "Conflict of Interest" remains pic.twitter.com/wtnBrRbfqL

6. With properties both in the UK and Pakistan, a Toyota Land Cruiser, Bentley (2017), Range Rover and two Mercedes; Syed Zulfi Bukhari has to be the most eligible bachelor in town!

As Chairman National Tourism Coordination Board, his love for cars is totally understandable!

Zulfi Bukhari’s 2012 Land Cruiser is listed as costing Rs 20 crores in his assets declaration

Also has a 2017 Bentley, 2017 Range Rover, Mercedes S63 and a Mercedes GLC 300 pic.twitter.com/2Xo4RXiyh1
