Imran Khan

Pakistan never ceases to amaze observers

Pakistan never ceases to amaze. This was evident in their recently concluded elections. Polling results were delayed by days to select candidates shortlisted by the Rawalpindi clique of generals.

Pakistan cannot wish Imran Khan away

That something is always the same: an appeal to the people. Follow- ing the vote of no-confidence in April 2022, for example, Khan announced a long march to Islamabad in May.

Funds for the party

According to data submitted to the Election Commission by the State Bank of Pakistan, the PTI had as many as 26 bank accounts. Between 2008 and 2013, the party had disclosed funds to the poll panel totalling PKR 1.33 billion. This is in contrast to the State Bank report which mentions the actual amount to be PKR 1.64 billion. Nay more, the party had even failed to disclose details of three banks in the documentation provided to the Election Commission.
