Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has said the nation’s youth would compete against looters in upcoming general election.
Addressing a public meeting in Layyah on Wednesday, Khan said the looters were going to contest the polls with the money they embezzled.
“A conspiracy is being hatched to win the election by doling out money,” he said.
“The youth will block the way of looters…tested faces will not be allowed to come to power again,” he said.
He vowed to build a new Pakistan and usher an era where the green passport would be respected across the world. “We will build a Pakistan where the poor will be able to live a respectable life.”
The PTI chairman asked the people of Karachi not to vote for any party that had a militant wing if they wanted to bring back peace to the city of lights.
He said his party had an alliance with the youth of Pakistan. “We have said it again and again that Karachi is being destroyed. The people of Karachi should decide not to vote for a party that has a militant wing,” he added.
He said the PTI was the only party that conducted free and fair internal elections in which everyone was given a chance to participate.
He said the PTI planned to strengthen the federation, while all other parties sought only to strengthen a particular province.
“You can see how all other parties fear the PTI when we have not even taken part in elections, but they are still frightened,” he said.
Lashing out at the Sharifs, Khan said the family of exhibitionist Sharif (a reference to Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif) was posing as Mughal emperors. He urged the youth to get ready to shape a new Pakistan with righteous principles.
PTI leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi said Imran Khan had now become a public leader and the PTI had emerged as a public party.
“We will open the PTI office in every locality,” Qureshi added.
