ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan says that he does not want to join the government with the approval of the establishment.

In an interview to British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC), PTI Chairman Imran Khan said that the press conference of DG ISPR and DG ISI was stupid. In the press conference held in the name of truth, lies and half-truths were told and presented out of context.

He said that it is unfortunate for ISI chief to hold a press conference. The ISI chief never holds such a press conference. I can respond to all the statements and allegations made in the press conference, which may cause embarrassment to the army. We do not want the institution of the army to suffer.

Imran Khan said that the only purpose of the long march is to hold a free and fair election. We want a government in Pakistan that is elected by the people. We want a government that comes from elections and not from auctions.

He further said that this government has brought down the previous government by spending money, horse trading and buying people’s conscience. Their one point agenda was to close their corruption cases. There are about Rs11 billion worth of cases against them.

Imran Khan said that regime change was planned from outside to bring the current government to power. In this regard, the cipher has come to light.

Yesterday, PTI Chairman Imran Khan challenged former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to return Pakistan and contest the election against him.

Addressing the participants of the Long March in Gujranwala, Imran Khan said that scripts are given from outside that they should not take cheap oil from Russia. NOC is taken from the US if oil can be imported Russia.

He said that my life and death is in Pakistan. I am not Nawaz Sharif to run away from Pakistan. Nawaz Sharif is waiting to get NRO from powerful people and then he will come back.

Imran said that he would take Nawaz Sharif to Adiala Jail from the airport upon his return.

Imran Khan said that Nawaz Sharif also rigged the medical reports. Nawaz Sharif and Zardari are conspiring together.

The PTI chairman challenged that whenever Nawaz Sharif comes back and contests elections, he would beat him in his constituency.

Yesterday, Leader of Pakistan Muslim League (N) Mian Nawaz Sharif has stopped Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif from any kind of talks with Imran Khan and has said that no demand of this fitna should be accepted and no face saving should be given.
