7-point agenda: Imran Khan demands Zardari's resignation

The Tiger roars finally!!

Recommend

these are democratic and practical demand. so govt should listen to it. while tuq’s demand are impractical.

Recommend

“no change can come in Pakistan unless free and fair elections take place and a government comes through the public mandate”
Bravo!!

Recommend

PTI rocks because our chairman does not go for short cuts! We will defeat all parties via vote!

Recommend

sensible ..

In the flurry to get what they want, no one has pointed out that SC’s order is unconstitutional and illegal to boot! Art. 248 gives protection to Pres, pM, CM, Ministers. And yes, system is corrupt but then Army and Judiciary are part of this system too – how many ex-army officers and judges have been arrested? India also has elected representatives, corruption, racism, some do good work, some bad, some none at all. But India hasn’t given Army or RAW or Judiciary or even regional powers to come and have a say in electoral politics. Only in Pakistan!

U Turn Master. Keep out of this. You are going to make a U Turn Soon.

Well said Imran Khan. Salams for 2013.

ur wisdom i must appreciate IK :D

Recommend

The party chairman also called for implementation of Supreme Court’s recent order of arresting Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf in the Rental Power Plants case. “We will come out on the roads if orders are not implemented.”

Didn’t the Holy Father IK utter something along the same lines when Gillani was being shown the door. He took a U-Turn and came out with yet another lala landish edict that Gillani would continue to remain PM until the process of appeal is exhausted!

Wake up people and see for yourself that the upper deck of your leader is not only empty but also devoured by cobweb.

Recommend

Mr Khan proves to be more mature than the tried and tested! Next PM Imran Khan!

The Tiger is all set or the kill now!

How are laptops and BISP “rigging”? This word is used much too freely and has lost all meaning. Also the term “pre-poll rigging” which I think is a wholy Pakistani invention which frankly I don’t understand very much. I can understand “pre-poll rigging” if the lists are tampered with preventing people from voting etc. but this is not the case here.

People getting laptops and BISP benefits are free to vote for whom ever they please. So this does not qualify as “rigging” in any way.

My husband is so angry…over dec he was using a special tonic and some hair was starting to grow on his bald head, but after watching TUQ march and now IK statement, both of whom have left Nawaz looking like a lost lamb, all hair that grew has fallen out. Can any one please recommend a good treatment to keep a bald headed man cool? Otherwise I am afraid he will pop a vien!

@Kaizen:

Please illuminate on the antecedents of a “Struggle.” Since I along with a lot of other erudite people weren’t born yesterday, IK wanted to make it big in 1997 with the help of establishment and Hameed Gul but ended up loosing every seat he contested on (even against the likes of Tariq Aziz from Lahore). Between 1997 and 1999, he was busy parading his fair skinned trophy wife around, hosting the likes of Lady Di and wining and dining with the most opulent and the most elitist people in the country.

Between 1999 and 2007, all he did was to support Mushie or play into the hands of the establishment intermittently while being a useless member of parliament who did nothing except for earning a salary at the expense of tax payer.

I couldn’t find anything remotely resembling a “Struggle” unless leaving his sister to deal with the cops, running from his Zaman Park house and spending a night in D.I. Khan jail can be categorized as Nelson Madalesque :D

Imran Khan handled the TUQ factor pretty shabbily and has lost some points.His Party has been erratic and a bit lost, apparently, which is a minus. His belated reaction smells of La MQM and Shiekh Rashid which is bad news.

Recommend

Khan we are with you. It is time to call and we go in Tsunami march to change this system of corruption and loot. Free and fair elections are not possible in this set up. Recommend

@Truth detector:
strongly support to Mr.Khan the sign of justice and victory,dont delay further jumped in time has come.
we need junoon and iishq no more aqal reqd to decide now .it is open secret and truth the time has come for positve change for pakistan.

Long live Captain. We are behind you!!!

Recommend

Laughting at demands i do not think there wil be any eleaction in pakistan it seems arm wil take ovr realy pakistan is in critical poistion and these demands will take it to wroseRecommend

Its time to get rid of these two corrupt parties from Pak. Lets make our country better and we have to vote now to PTI at least.

Recommend

Waiting for the call

Recommend

@Rabia: You’ll apparently manufacture things to criticize. Imran Khan was the only politician who protested the day Zardari became President back in 2008, and has been calling for his resignation since then. Please don’t propagate falsehood.

Recommend

well done PTI

Recommend

@Z:

Awwwww…..what a poignant and sombre retort you posted in response to my contribution! My dear friend, how would you explain the labour of love between Musharraf and IK which was gifted to the latter and now lives like a king at the Goldsmith Annexe in Banigala….a hint, “Sheroo.” ;)

Recommend

I used to be a big supporter of pti but backed out when pti was not using its strenght to bring lahore to its halt with its demand for reforms or arrest of corrupt officials. I again request pti now is the chance to demand resignation of zardari and dissolution of parliament. You need to come out to the streets and surround the parliament like Qadri.

Recommend

‘U ‘ turn , why ?

Is tiger now trying to snatch the pray from the mouth of Canadian Jaguar entered in the jungal (Pak) ,?

IK will alone enter in Islamabad as his jehadee supporters now can’i dare to go there .

Revolution is well under control of Qadry ,…..so is the govt, and army . Only IK and CJ is far away from him . SOON THEY WILL BE ALSO IN HIS GRIP .Recommend

@exptisupporter:

It would serve you better to remain an ex-PTI supporter because there are more chances of Tahir-ul-Qadri admitting to be the Vatican representative for Pakistan than to expect Pope Imran Khan Benedict to bring his trolls….sorry supporters out on the roads and surround the parliament.

Recommend

Imran missed the bus, because he was not driving it. It is now proven there is only one public power, and Imran is not that power. He may be important in the eyes of the West, and the Westernized people, but not common Pakistanies.

Recommend

Imran Khan presented his 7-point agenda at the time when Dr. Qadari is having long march against government and the apex court of the country has issued orders of arrest of Prime Minister. It seems that the undemocratic forces have once again joined hands together against democracy. Let the government complete it’s tenure because after only 2 months the current assemblies will complete their constitutional tenure.Demand of resignation of Mr Zardari is nothing than a political ignorance of PTI because he is the elected president of the country.

Recommend

@Imran: what uturns are you talking about?

Recommend

History will document how Imran, who is sincere but sorely lacks political acumen, lost his way. He was lured into gathering “electable candidates” by his critics and political commentators, thereby losing his only strength: new and clean faces. These electables have not only marginalized the old ideologues within the PTI but have also led Imran into one political quagmire after another. These people joined PTI because they believed it will lead them to the corridors of power. They do not share PTI’s ideology and are impatient to fulfill their personal ambitions. Unfortunately for Pakistan, it seems Imran and PTI are destined for political oblivion. If Imran wanted Zardari to resign before elections, he had enough momentum behind him to launch a campaign on his own. Now, he only looks a fool trying to cling to Qadri’s (the puppet) coattails! He has also managed to put PTI in the same league with of Qadri (who by the way is backed by the likes of MQM and Q-league). How unfortunate for the people of Pakistan who had great hopes for PTI.

Recommend

Why demand resignation and not dismissal! The SC is in his generous mood and distributing “Arrest Orders”.in 2013.

IK is part of undemocratic game along with CJ, and establishment ..

Recommend

You term TuQ’s demands impractical yet you endorse the demands IK made .. Upon closer examination they are 90% same. Icing on the cake is that IK supports TuQ’s demands fully. He just has issues with strategy.

People… dont follow figures .. follow agendas and manifestos.I was an ardent supporter of PTI .. i still am .. but as a patriot my heart beats for what TuQ is doing. May God grant him success. Oh God already did. Thats what you get following the idealistic pathway.

GO GO zardari GO GO

PTI has acted very maturely in the current political situation; and this is what we expect form a true democratic political party. Congratulations to Pakistani nation, we have a new democratic party that is capable of leading the country.

The party put forward its adequate demands in a timely mannar. Instead of jumping into the current chaotic situation like an opportunist, the party opted for right decisions to save democracy and avoid any kind of anarchy in the country. Now it is up to the government to act wisely and announce election dates and a caretaker setup that should be genuinely neutral with census of all political parties within and outside assembly.
