The PTI founder, Imran Khan, on Saturday ruled out any possibility of discussions with the Pakistan People’s Party regarding a no-confidence motion.
During a conversation with journalists at Adiala Jail on Saturday, he expressed his stance, asserting that PPP and Pakistan Muslim League-N were indistinguishable and both were products of ‘manipulated’ electoral processes. Imran criticised the current political climate, describing it as detrimental to democracy.
He highlighted the restrictions placed on his party, stating that key leaders, including the chairman and vice chairman, were already imprisoned, yet the government still threatened further bans on the party.
Addressing the conditions in Adiala Jail, he detailed the harsh treatment he faced, including unsanitary conditions and inadequate food.
He called for an investigation into the alleged poisoning and mistreatment during his imprisonment.
Imran also voiced his strong condemnation of the Bannu incident, where he claimed the military fired on unarmed civilians during a peace march. He demanded a judicial inquiry to ensure accountability.
On the economic front, he criticised the government’s fiscal policies, questioning the increase in the presidential budget and accusing the ruling elite of burdening the public while avoiding personal sacrifices.
He emphasised that transparent elections and economic reforms were essential for Pakistan’s recovery from its current crisis.
