In an e-mail questionnaire sent to the US State Department by Independent Urdu, it was asked whether the US State Department is aware of the recent statement of Prime Minister Imran Khan. Has the State Department contacted the Pakistan Embassy in Islamabad in this regard?

According to the website, the State Department’s response to the allegations was sought.

According to the TV, in response to a questionnaire, a US State Department spokesman stated that there was no truth in the allegations.

Earlier, Federal Minister for Information Fawad Chaudhry had said that we do not want to investigate the matter of the letter nor do we want to reveal the names behind the scenes.

Talking to a private TV channel, Fawad Chaudhry said, “We have to decide whether we want to name the people and countries related to the letter or not. We do not want to investigate the issue of the letter.”

He said that we did not want to reveal the name behind the letter. If we wanted to reveal the name, it would have been very easy. We would have released the contents of the letter.

Chaudhry said that we have two options regarding the letter, either make it public and let all people see it.

He said that it has been decided to send the letter to Chief Justice of Pakistan.

It may be recalled that Prime Minister Imran Khan had waved the letter while addressing a public meeting in Islamabad on March 27 and said that an attempt was being made to change the government with the help of money from outside the country.
