Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif said on Friday that Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf chairman Imran Khan was willing to negotiate with Taliban who had killed 40,000 Pakistanis but was not willing to hold talks with a democratically elected government.
He was speaking to the Pakistan Television (PTV). Sharif said this showed Khan’s double standards.
Sharif said that he had been deeply saddened by the Model Town violence. He said that senior police officials had been removed and a judicial tribunal had been formed to look into the incident. He said that some politicians were guilty of inciting violence. Sharif said they wanted to hinder national development and spread anarchy. He said that his Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz would leave no stone unturned to protect the life and honour of the public. Sharif said that Khan had congratulated him on winning the general elections but was now holding a long march alleging electoral rigging.

It is said that now a days the whole world is being run by triple A( America, Arab, Army) . I believe it a reality. 4th A can also be included, the Almighty, Allah, the supreme. America is the super power which controls the whole world. Leaders of the world(especially the Islamic) are actually managers in the form of dummies. Furthermore Leaders in Pakistan are like characters in drama. Scripts are being given in order to be played in the drama. Imran khan is the hero and Nawaz the villain. The former is inexperienced still can win the race inspite of being mechanical and unnatural. He is the hero.
Oven is now hot to bake the bread. People weary of Energy crises, terrorism and unemployment etc are ready to come out for the last episode of the drama set on the stage in Pakistan. O people be aware of the new world. It has changed totally. Don't be part of the drama.
Our leaders are managers implanted by triple A. It's a drama going on here. I believe Pakistan a stage where every character is given a role to play. Imran khan and Qadri has given this role recently. People in Pakistan are always dodged by the actors because our people has no common sense. They are illiterate. Some of them know how to write and read but they don't know the world. They are uneducated degree holders.
sorry sara, i dun know you but let me tell yu that the way for change which Imran Khan selected is absolutely right one. you nd me a common person we are living in 21st century but can yu tell me that anything here at pak give us d clue that we are living in modren world. these corrupt ruLer rahther few families of pak wanted to control all 190 millions common pakistani like yu nd me. look to china nd singapore they got their freedom after that we had gotten..but check their prosperity nd progress.. where they are nd where we are... its all due to these rulers... we elect them cuz they promised us that they will change our nation destiny, also they take oath... but they betray us ..they cheat us... so we should try a new person..plz try to understand...thanx nd no offense...

He got only plan how to restore his four seats he got only plan how to disturb public
i vote to PML N How can imran say iam fake
The cricketer turned politician was backed by certain ELEMENTS when he rose to power. Till date he is being backed and SOMEONE wants to regain control of Pakistan. Now who is controlling whom and who will gain the profit is yet to be seen but from where I see, Imran is going to axe his own political career and that is not good for Pakistan.
Look at the biased headlines of Express group showing whose side they are on "Holding forth". I think people of Pakistan should hold accountable express tribune employees for their bias.
