General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa struck deal with Zardari, Sindh CM Murad Ali Shah: Imran Khan
General (retd) Bajwa had “struck” a deal with Zardari and Sindh CM Murad Ali Shah, Imran said, adding he was not in contact with the establishment “for now”
LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said on Saturday that former chief of the army staff General (retd) Qamar Javed Bajwa had “struck” a deal with Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari and Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah.
Imran made the revelation in conversation with journalists on Saturday as he continued his tirade against the former army chief, whom he blames now for his government’s ouster.
The PTI chief recently admitted that granting an extension to Gen (retd) Bajwa was a “mistake” and had also accused the ex-army chief of “betraying” him. Also, in a conversation with journalists on Friday, he revealed that he was not in contact with the establishment “for now”.
As the PTI presses the government on holding snap polls across the country, Imran predicted that he sees elections taking place in either March or April.
He also added that PTI members of the National Assembly would appear before Speaker Raja Pervaiz Ashraf to confirm their resignations on Monday (December 26).
The government, however, has repeatedly ruled out holding early elections citing several reasons, including floods, and said they might take place in October 2023.
“We will also remain allies of the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid as they have stood by us,” the PTI chief said as the political turmoil in Punjab persists.
“I will not inflict pain on the masses for remaining in power. Once I form my government again, I will not compromise on anything,” the PTI chief said.
Taking a swipe at Minister for Foreign Affairs Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, he said that the Bhutto scion had gone on more visits
abroad than he did during his three-and-a-half years in tenure. “Also, if he is claiming that he is paying for foreign trips through his pocket, then are these his private visits?” he wondered.
Khan alleged that the Election Commission is controlled and Gen Bajwa had a deal with Zardari and Murad Ali Shah. “Peoples Party and PMLN have no receipt of funding while we have a database of 40,000 donors,” he claimed.
