LAHORE: Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan on Monday said that the party could return to the National Assembly to establish the caretaker set-up.
Talking to senior journalists on Monday, he said that PM Shehbaz Sharif could be very worried as the PTI had planned to return to the National Assembly.
Imran Khan claimed that several PML-N MNAs are in contact with the PTI. “However, they will be allowed to join the PTI after undergoing a test.”
PTI defeat in Karachi
The PTI chief said no decrease had been witnessed in the Bajwa Doctrine. “The reason behind the PTI defeat in the local government elections in Karachi is the weak organization and rigging by the ruling PPP,” Khan maintained.
Khan said that Finance Minister Ishaq Dar had to increase the petrol price on Sunday night, but he did not do so. “It means now the IMF loan will not come.”
The PTI chairman said that the future of the PML-Q is linked to the PTI. “We have given the names for the Punjab caretaker chief minister, which will be acceptable to the PML-N,” he added.
