SAHIWAL: Former prime minister and PTI chairman Imran Khan declared on Wednesday that “even with the support of the umpires” thieves cannot win by-elections in Punjab scheduled to take place on July 17.
Addressing a public gathering in Sahiwal, Imran Khan expressed his gratitude to the participants for coming in large numbers to the public gathering despite heavy rain and accumulated water in the avenue.
The former prime minister said the politics of turncoats has been exposed, adding that ‘lootas’ have joined Asif Ali Zardari and Sharifs for the lust for power and money. Lashing out at his political opponents, Khan said Asif Ali Zardari and the Sharif family are only concerned with their wealth they have amassed through corruption and have nothing to do with the public or their interest.
He also reiterated his claim that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is trying to ensure the victory of the “imported govt.” “Even if empires are with you, people will defeat you,” Imran Khan said in his message to the political opponents.
Imran Khan asked the masses to check voter lists ahead of by-elections to 20 seats of the Punjab Assembly. He reiterated his party’s resolve to win all the 20 seats on July 17. Paying rich tributes to the journalists for standing with truth, he said the government is pressuring the journalists and those who are raising their voice for the country are being booked in fake cases.
