Imran Khan said that the PDM-led “government feels threatened” by the polls. He said that since his government’s removal, his party has won 30 by-polls out of 37. He further shared his fears that the elections might not eventually take place due to the atmosphere in the country.
“The Supreme Court has ruled for upholding the rule of law. Had such decisions been made earlier, Pakistan would have been the most prosperous country,” he said, adding that the nation stands with you for rule of law.
PTI’s decision came after the Supreme Court, in a split verdict, ruled that elections for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab assemblies should be held within 90 days.
