Pakistanis will go to the polls on February 8 but the largest political party—Pakistan Tehreek-e Insaf led by Imran Khan—faces immense hurdles. Its leader remains in jail on bogus charges and the party has been denied its party symbol intended to hamper its supporters.
Despite the Pakistan army’s relentless war on Imran Khan and his party workers, the former prime minister’s popularity continues to soar. There are now fears that the army might attempt to murder Imran Khan. The people must prevent this crime from being carried out.
Since his ouster from power in a US-dictated and army engineered coup, Imran Khan has attracted millions of people to his rallies. He demands transparent elections but that won’t solve Pakistan’s problems. It needs a revolution.
