Never wished to gain power through conspiracy with army: Imran
PTI Chairman said in an interview that he wants to maintain democracy in Pakistan
LAHORE (Dunya News) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has said on Thursday that he never wished to gain power through conspiracy with army, adding that he supports democracy in the country.
In an interview with BBC Urdu, he said the allegations against him are false, stressing that he cannot go back in fear of martial law. He mentioned several politicians brought into power by military dictators including Nawaz Sharif and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto.
He mentioned that he has struggled for 21 years and cannot let it all go in the fear of martial law. PTI has the largest street power and can spread anarchy, but it never did so, Imran Khan claimed.
PTI Chief recalled how he stopped the PTI rally from Peshawar to enter Islamabad during lockdown as he knew that it will create a crisis situation. "I knocked the door of Supreme Court for this very reason," he added.
Meanwhile, a group of past and existing lawmakers has met Imran Khan and pledged support after joining PTI, including Maliha Soomro, Mumtaz Ali Mirani, Farooq Awan and Raees Ali Nawaz Khan.
