PTI Chief Imran Khan
Incarcerated Pakistan Tehreek-I-Insaaf founder Imran Khan slamming the 2024 elections (general elections), has predicted that Pakistan will witness a Sri Lanka like situation as the nation’s hopes were shattered by stealing the mandate, a Pakistan based news channel said.
During an informal interaction with journalists outside Adiala Jail in Rawalpindi, the PTI Chief said “My all predictions have proven true,” further reiterating that he was not engaging in talks with the current rulers to reach a deal. “Each and everything are based on lies, like the election was a lie, the security threat was also a lie,” he said, adding that the PTI was deliberately kept away from 2024 polls.
He further said, the voters took revenge on the polling day but the change via vote was not accepted, a Pakistani news media agency said. Moreover, he highlighted that the former ruling party would continue its peaceful protests against the rigging besides approaching the Supreme Court.
He also foresaw the horse-trading in the forthcoming Senate elections, scheduled to be held on April 2, 2024, the Pakistani media agency said. As Pakistan is about to seek a final tranche of loans from the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the PTI founder said the nation will take to the streets after a new wave of inflation.
Earlier on March 13, 2024, the PTI Chairman, Barrister Gohar Ali Khan also arrived at Adiala Jail to meet thr party founder. After meeting him, during the hearing of the Euro 190 million NCA Scandal, Gohar Ali Khan said that they submitted a formal request for their meeting with the party founder, but a ban was in place on meetings with inmates at the jail.
He detailed that the party would take a final decision regarding candidates for the upcoming polls in the Senate which he also discussed with the PTI founder in which some of them have been finalised. Criticising the incumbent government, Gohar said that certain individuals from the former caretaker government have been inculcated into federal cabinet.
The PTI Chairman said they believe in dialogues, but his party lawmakers were not given a chance to speak in the parliament. He added that the incumbent government has no moral grounds to rule the country, according to the Pakistani news agency.
Moreover, the PTI Central leaders Omar Ayub Khan, Sher Afzal Marwat, Shaukat Basra along with lawyers staged a protest outside the Islamabad High Court (IHC) which they advanced towards the Parliament House. However, the protesting PTI leaders have been stopped from entering the Parliament House and later only the PTI lawmakers have been permitted to enter the parliament.
