“[I] hope the serving army chief would ensure transparent [general] elections. The amount of power that the military has is not possessed by any other institution,” the PTI chief said while speaking with journalists in Lahore.
The deposed prime minister, who was ousted from the top office in April last year as a result of a no-confidence motion, said that no one could stop the country from progressing if the Pakistan Army “plays its positive role”.
Commenting on the existence of the establishment in the country’s politics, Imran Khan said: “The establishment is a reality and it is above the law. The situation [of the country] will improve when it starts working for the rule of law.”
Talking about his fears of political engineering ahead of the general elections due this year, the former premier said his party would resist if attempts to reduce their mandate are made in Punjab, highlighting that his members were being provoked against him and asked to join Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
“Political engineering is still underway, which is why the [different factions] of the MQM-P [Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan] has been merged,” he said.
The PTI chief made it clear that he “is ready for every discussion” but against giving the NRO to his opponents. He also stands on his claim regarding Husain Haqqani – the former ambassador to the United States.
Imran Khan went on to say that the country is at the verge of default and instead of going bankrupt, it would be better off going to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) in this situation.
