Imran lambasts Nawaz govt

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman on Friday lambasted the government of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, saying that when he was demanding justice, no one paid heed and now that he is planning to take to the streets, people were worried that it may result in the imposition of a martial law. Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, August 14 would see a war between two ideologies — between monarchy and the will of the people. Khan said the provincial government in Punjab had turned the police force into Gullu Butt. He said PTI wanted democracy to flourish in the country, adding that if the Punjab government did not mend its ways, the army would indeed take over. “Our aim is to reform Pakistan’s electoral system,” the PTI chief said, adding that on August 14 his party would present a list of demands before the government.
