Minister (2k+ posts)

This news article was published in 2007 when NAB sent report to Supreme Court that Nawaz Sharif, cabinet ministers Humayun Akhtar and Jehangir Tareen, Chaudhary Shujaat and Asif Zardari hoarded sugar creating a shortage of sugar and increasing price from Rs 21 to 45 per kg during 2004-2006. Interesting thing is that when Zaka Ashraf becomes PCB chief every PTI supporters shout about his corruption in sugar mills that he did in the form of hoarding but no one will say a word about Jehangir Tareen when he becomes chief minister of the newly created Southern Punjab. I wonder if hoarding (zakheera andozi) of sugar is considered as corruption or not? A simple Yes and No would be enough but would love to get a complete point of view but be polite please.

Also, there is an interesting article at PTI's Insaf Forum on "Rich Ministers of a poor nation". Interesting thing is that PTI supporters are writing against Jehangir Tareen in the past and now he has joined PTI so what they will have to say. I wonder if these rich people can solve problems of Pakistan's poor people.

A simple search on google with last ten years archive can give you a lot more information. I just hope you make the right choice and question what is right rather than becoming blind sheep.
