Imran’s sons have right to be part of movement: Salman Raja

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Secretary General Salman Akram Raja Wednesday said that it was the right of the sons of PTI founder to be a part of the movement.

A day earlier, PTI founder Imran Khan’s sister Aleema Khan, during her media talk outside the Adiala jail in Rawalpindi, announced that both Suleman and Qasim will come to Pakistan to take part in the proposed movement. Talking to the media outside the Islamabad High Court here, Salman Akram noted that the family’s relationship with the PTI founder was of a different nature.

He said that the party founder and his spouse Bushra Bibi have the right to have their sentences suspended soon. “It is not wrong to come out for one’s rights as Benazir Bhutto also launched a movement,” he contended.

He said if the status of the province was to be changed, two-third majority is necessary, and the government could not manage two-thirds majority even after getting reserved seats.

Salman Akram explained that 85 percent of the seats in the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly are with the PTI, therefore, he said how the government will get a two-thirds majority in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was incomprehensible.

The PTI leader said that Chief Minister Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Ali Amin Gandapur is not threatened by his own people. If there is an external conspiracy against him, he will fight back.
