Bushra Bibi, wife of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, has clarified that she has no plans to enter politics but has conveyed her husband’s message urging party supporters to mobilise on November 24.
Addressing a PTI gathering in Peshawar for the first time, Bushra Bibi stated, “I have no intention of joining politics. I am here solely to deliver Imran Khan’s message.”
She added that while it has been challenging to communicate Khan’s directives to party workers due to his incarceration, his message remains clear: supporters should be prepared to take to the streets on November 24.
Expressing concern about the possibility of her own arrest before the planned date, Bushra Bibi reiterated that she does not intend to assume a leadership role within PTI, saying, “Imran Khan is the party leader, not me.”
Bushra Bibi addressed the gathering from behind a screen, with organisers instructing attendees to switch off their mobile phones during her speech to maintain privacy and security.
