Federal Minister for Postal Services and Communications Murad Saeed has vowed to take action against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Maryam Nawaz for not paying the Motorway toll tax.
According to reports, Maryam Nawaz, who was en route Mandi Bahauddin from Lahore, for her rally refused to pay the toll tax on the motorway. As a result, a scuffle broke out between PML-N workers and motorway officials.
Motorway police claimed that almost 80 vehicles, which were part of Maryam’s entourage, also passed the toll without paying the tax. They added that they let them go because they did not want to create unnecessary chaos. However, the search for those involved has been started.
Maryam’s attitude angered Murad Saeed, who vowed that he will take stern action against her. He said that Maryam will now have to pay the tax with a fine. The minister asserted that every citizen is equal before the law and discrimination will not be done between the poor and rich.
