Will shoot down US drones if elected to power: Imran Khan

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan on Saturday said he would order to shoot down American drones if he comes to power following the upcoming general election.
Addressing an election rally in Swabi, the PTI chairman slammed President Zardari and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman for looting public money.
Rejecting all allegations by Fazl, Khan said, “I’ve read the Holy Quran with translation and it clearly states that one who does not believe in the finality of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is not a Muslim. The Quran asks us to follow the example of Prophet Muhammad and although it is impossible to reach his level of perfection, I try my best to be like him.”
Addressing a public gathering in Mardan, Khan has said no one could stop the tsunami from victory.
The PTI chief said his party had no big names but young leaders would achieve great things. He urged the people to vote for PTI for a better future.
Khan said if his party came to power, PTI will work selflessly for the welfare of people and will truly address all their problems.
He hoped people will elect honest representatives in the general election.
Talking on the JUI-F chief at a rally in Charsadda, Khan said, “He has been favouring killings of Pukhtoons in United States’ war and was in alliance with Pervez Musharraf.”
Imran Khan predicted the political death of Fazlur Rehman on May 11.
“Maulana had requested United States for premiership. US reports have made it clear that all politicians have a dual character,” said the PTI chief.
Later, addressing a gathering in Buner, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, as part of his election drive, Khan accused his rivals of using unfair means to run their election campaign.
Imran targeted the main contesting political parties, PML-N and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP). He also criticised Fazl for his “friendly opposition” during the previous government.
He said Fazl used Islam to fulfill his designs. The PTI chairman appealed people to vote on ideology and rise above “cast and creed” in the forthcoming elections.
