LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chief Imran Khan announced on
Thursday that the Sindh government has not yet approved an application
submitted earlier by the party in which it sought approval for holding
the rally at Mazar-e-Quaid.
Speaking to the media at the Allama
Iqbal International Airport in Lahore, he said if the Sindh government
did not allow then the PTI would explore other options, such as legal
action, to obtain permission for its public gathering in the metropolis.
Khan also said that Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP)-led coalition
government might not complete its constitutional term and demanded that a
neutral set-up be formed for holding general elections in the country.
He said that the current crisis might not allow the government
to complete its legal term. He said that only those governments which
have public support have come out successful from crises. Khan
criticized the PPP for “seeking support from US” in this regard, adding
that it was unfortunate that the current government was taking this
route.
He said that a neutral set-up in which no there is no involvement of any political figure, should be constituted soon.
Khan
disclosed that many resignations were expected and asked the people of
Pakistan to be mentally prepared as they would witness the resignations
coming from other politicians.
Imran Khan said that people have
had enough of the old political parties which have failed to deliver for
the betterment of people and said that they want to see PTI in power.
He
said that corruption, inflation, dishonesty, poor law and order
situation and bad governance are the setbacks of PPP-led government and
PML-N’s government in Punjab. He also said that leaderships of both
parties are incompetent to address the basic issues of people. Online
