Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf spokesperson Shoukat Yousafzai claimed that the party’s success in the recent Rajanpur bye-election was a indication of its popularity among the people. Addressing a press conference, he also alleged that the caretaker gov-ernment in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was a PDM gov-ernment, ministers making statements as if they had received millions of votes.
Shoukat Yousafzai emphasized that the role of a caretaker government was not to engage in account-ability but to ensure that elections were held in a free and fair manner. He also pointed out that Imran PTI Chairman Imran Khan had faced numerous legal challenges, including terrorism charges, but remained committed to staying in the country. He expressed concern over the current state of af-fairs in the country, including the exodus of talented individuals and the posting and transfer of the care-taker government and bureaucracy.—APP
