HARIPUR: Former foreign minister and central leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, Shah Mehmood Qureshi, said the only leader who could steer of prevailing morass was Imran Khan as the federal government had failed to live up to the expectations of people.

While speaking at the election rally for his party’s candidate, Akbar Ayub Khan, in Sarai Saleh, Qureshi said that terrorism and the price hike were at their peak and making the citizens lives miserable. He added that the federal government had failed to control both and was in a quandary because of lack of commitment.

“Imran Khan is the only leader eligible to put the system back in order,” he said. “Khan has the courage to protect the honour of the mothers and sisters of this nation.” He added that the system improved when the PTI government was formed in the province.

Former provincial minister Yusuf Ayub also spoke to the rally.

PTI should not be afraid to bring out it's main cards that injected power into PTI revolution in the beginning days. As a mater of fact: Due to the absence of these heavy weights next to Imran Khan tragically make Imran Khan look week and inexperience. He must not forget these heavy weights are working for IK and not against him and by bringing them out it enhances the PTI image not cloud it. Their absence only make the competeting parties more reasonable. It's only benefiting other parties that these legends are not brought into equation. I just remember now why I am forgetting about PTI... it's these familiar political faces that I feel now lost in oblivion.
