Islamabad: Former Prime Minister and Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf Imran Khan has said that as Prime Minister I did not get relief from the court for 3 years. We cannot afford a weak army in our country.
Addressing a seminar in Islamabad, the chairman of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf said that I grew up during the era of Ayub Khan, we never saw democracy, if the courts are giving justice, we will never be destroyed. I went to Britain at the age of 18 and saw democracy there, democracy is stable in western countries, the powerful person in Pakistan is above the law, in Britain there is rule of law due to which democracy is strong.
He said that Allah has sent man to the earth for justice, there are strict laws in Britain against character assassination, the country was destroyed due to lack of rule of law, freedom of expression is allowed in Europe, Europe I can’t play anyone’s role, the only difference between a prosperous and a poor society is the law, a society that has justice is successful. I have never seen democracy. I went to the UK at the age of 18. See, all the dictators put themselves above the law and weakened the institutions, the dictators weakened the country’s institutions, when the dictator tries to become democratic, he controls the media, when the judiciary reform movement started, Pervez Musharraf controlled the media. Controlled.
The former prime minister said that these two families were caught in corruption, the society where there is law and justice is silent, people were happy when Pervez Musharraf assumed power. Why didn’t rule of law come during the two dynasties, these two dynasties controlled the media.
He said that no one else was criticized as much as I was as the Prime Minister. As the Prime Minister, I did not get relief from the court for three years. Never tried to feed money to the media. When I became the Prime Minister, I was not under any threat from the media. Fake news of tax evasion was launched against my ministers, as Prime Minister I was instructed not to pick up any journalist.
PTI Chairman said that a strong army is very important for the country, we cannot afford a weak army in our country because everyone saw the situation of the countries which had a weak army. Dirty and dirty things are happening on social media, there is a debate going on all over the world about how to handle social media. Whoever decided not to stop the American conspiracy, tell me it is in the interest of the country? The President of the State sent the cipher to the Chief Justice but an attempt was made to suppress the issue of the cipher and it was also said that such ciphers keep coming, the Supreme Court does not inquire into this cipher and instead threatens.
He said that such ciphers are not even for the Republic of Banana. The question is, can the elected Prime Minister of a big country be removed in this way? If this happens today, will anyone be able to stand up to someone’s threat? We never tried to influence the court during our tenure, never called for judicial decisions.
