Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday called for negotiations with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) and other political parties regarding formation of the next caretaker government. “We will adopt a democratic approach to hold protests if we are not consulted about the caretaker setup,” Imran told reporters after visiting the residence of Qazi Hussain Ahmed. “We will not join Dr. Tahir ul Qadri’s long march,” he said.
To a question, the PTI leader said that his party would prefer making alliance with parties sitting out of the parliament. Separately in an interview, Imran said resolving the Kashmir dispute would be the top priority of his party if it came into power.
However, Khan ruled out any military solution to the pending issue between Pakistn and India.
Khan said Kashmir was the bone of contention between the two neighbours and must be resolved for peace to prevail in the sub-continent.
“I have three former foreign ministers in my party and they have briefed me about the Kashmir issue, so I don’t think I will have any problem sorting it out once I come to power,” he said. Khan said he had sought suggestions from the All-Parties Hurriyat Conference delegation that recently visited Pakistan and would incorporate their suggestions in his policy planning.
“We have to see how we can settle the issue through negotiations with India and I am of the opinion that the Kashmiri leadership should also be taken into confidence,” the PTI chief said. Ruling out solution to the Kashmir issue through military means, Khan said Pakistan was itself struggling with militancy and he did not believe in supporting such means.
It is a good call by the PTI Chairman Imran Khan to discuss the caretaker government for the coming elections. It seems PTI is claiming a victory based on how the youngsters will vote where as PPP is hoping to win the elections by bringing Bilawal Bhutto, which will for the time being will bring few seats and more good spirit to the party. Only PML N has showed some signs to win it all. There voter base is very balanced. People from all walk of life will vote for the party, so it appears that this time around it is PML N, although PTI can 30 or 35 seats and PPP wil win some seats. So, it is time to discuss a caretaker government or make an army set-up.
Why anyone in will think of voting for PML-N. They have been in punjab power for 25 years. What have they done for the country? We have to get rid of them by voteing for other candiates this time around, not these same old thugs.
PML-N is not an option for rebuilding Pakistan. Inshallah we will vote for PTI.
