‘No post-poll pact with PPP or PML-N’

LONDON: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said on Monday that there would be no alliance with Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) or Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) even after the elections. He said that he would leave all corrupt politicians inside the boxing ring with Amir Khan, the Pakistani-origin British boxer.

Addressing an event here, Imran wondered what the point of such a government was when the people did not trust state institutions. The PTI chief supported the Chief Justice of Pakistan, saying he was addressing issues being faced by the average persons.

Imran also claimed that the chief justice praised the PTI-led Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government, adding that in the province, officers are posted on the basis of merit. He added if the PTI comes to power, they will take assistance from overseas Pakistanis to reform the institutions.
