MINGORA: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan on Sunday said that it was a matter a few weeks before the PTI would form the government in the country.
He claimed that the PTI had the solution to terrorism and extremism. Imran said that sustainable peace could not be restored in Swat despite the fact that its residents rendered matchless sacrifices.
“PTI will form the next government after securing victory in the upcoming polls,” he said while addressing a public gathering at the Grassy Ground here.PTI Central General Secretary Pervez Khattak, Provincial Vice-President Fazal Hakim, District President Dr Amjad, General Secretary Mohammad Zeb Khan and others also spoke on the occasion.
Imran said he didn’t believe in telling lies and would not make any false promise. He said if voted to power, the PTI would restore the primitive justice system in Swat - the one which was in vogue in the valley before merger of the princely state with Pakistan.
The PTI chief said he would not renege on his election pledges, and assured the gathering that his party would not let the people down. He said there was no military solution to terrorism issue rather a political settlement of the issue was required. “The PTI will establish lasting peace in Swat and the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (Fata),” he declared.
The PTI leader said he had warned against joining the war against terrorism. “It is not our war. It is America’s war,” he stressed.Imran said his party was awarding tickets to candidates for the upcoming general elections on merit. “Let me make it clear that we have given tickets to honest people and the traditional politicians cannot defeat our candidates,” he maintained.
He said other parties were doing dynastic politics where a son succeeded his father to become a leader. “It is the PTI, which held the intra-party elections and gave the chance to sincere and ideological party workers to run the affairs of the party,” he recalled.
“The PTI belongs to the poor people as it gave 25 percent of the tickets to the youth to contest the next election,” he said and added that the future belonged to the PTI and it would steer the country out of the prevailing crisis.
Imran believed all the political parties combined couldn’t defeat the PTI in the May 11 general elections. He said the opportunist politicians had robbed Pakistan of its assets and defamed the country in the comity of nations.
“We will create a new Pakistan, a dignified and a prosperous one. The PTI will reduce the gap between the rich and the poor if voted to power,” he promised.
