Pakistan Politics: After the elections in Pakistan are over, the MPs supporting Imran Khan’s party PTI have decided to remain in the opposition. Imran Khan Due to his going to jail, his party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf was not allowed to participate in the elections. In such a situation, PTI people had contested the elections as independent candidates. These independent MPs were successful in winning the maximum number of seats.
No party has got a clear majority in Pakistan’s elections. Since they are not part of any party, these independent MPs cannot even stake claim to form the government. In such a situation, the MPs have decided to remain in the opposition. Along with this, PTI has decided to protest across the country against the alleged rigging in the elections.
Barrister Mohammad Ali Saif, leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, said, “We have decided to sit in the opposition. However, if seats were given according to the number of votes we got and the results were not changed, we would have reached 180 seats.” We would have been in the government together. We have evidence that our candidates had won.” Along with this, PTI announced the places in North Punjab where its leaders will protest.
Demand for intervention from America
Mohammad Ali Saif has also demanded America’s intervention in the election rigging. He said, “America talks about being the voice of democracy in the whole world, but both America and Europe have maintained silence on the rigging in Pakistan elections.”
