These joinings are becoming a joke.

I remember this same Ramesh Kumar is the one who got kicked out of the plane during the VIP thing going around when he made the plane wait for him.

True but there is no way to win Punjab and Sindh with new faces. PTI tried that and failed badly in 2013 so they learned their lesson. Only in KP people voted for new faces and we saw young ministers like Atif, Shahram etc

Doubt people will vote any of these ones either who have been doing corruption in the other parties for years and now going to do the same in this one too.

Ramesh Kumar came on reserve seat he isn't going to contest. Our assemblies are full of corrupt people from Punjab and Sindh winning their seats from 2 decades even after changing parties 3 or 4 times. Only in KP they throw you out and select next candidate and party if you repeat the same mistakes
 
MNA candidate from JI in dir upper who once contested elections independently and grabbed 19k votes has joined PTI few days back.It is massive for pti here .He has personal vote bank.
He is the cousin of Sahibzada Tariqullah the current MNA of JI from upper dir.

What a response in Rawalpindi membership campaign today for PTI! thousands of people came out on every camp even though there was bad weather today in rwp
 
Those "membership camps" in Rawalpindi though....




The pindi boys really showed up to the party. I know jalsas are not an indication of election results but Imran is managing huge "membership camps" in whichever part of the country he is going.

PTI won most seats from Pindi in Punjab back in 2013 as well so not a huge shock to see so many people but i was very surprised to see number of people coming out in Sindh.
It was also great to see IK going to small streets to Hyderabad and received such a brilliant response. On the flip side, watched a show from Hyderabad and almost 90% people said they would vote for MQM :facepalm::facepalm: Even PMLN doesn't get this much support from ANY Punjab city.

There are 6 Hyderabad NA seats and MQM won only 2 of them in 2013 (the urban ones, khalid maqbool siddiqui won from there). PPP won 4 of them Naveed Qamar keep winning from there
 
Another victory.

PML-N MNA Bilal Virk joins hands with Imran Khan.National Assembly seat from Virk’s is confirmed as he has retained the seat for the last decade.
 
By each passing day KP's conservative districts are getting out of the hands of Fazlu and Siraj's parties it looks like MMA cant save them they will have to build a grand alliance in KP to beat PTI.

MMA+PMLN+QWP is the only hope for them
 
Sitting MPA of PMLN Arbab Waseem joins PTI it looks like PMLN ka naam lene vala be koi nae hoga in Peshawar next elections.
 
PML-N MPA from Sargodha joins the PTI.

N-league is crumbling much quicker than I had expected.
 
Massive power show of PTI in ANP"s fortress Mardan today!

Imran Khan can become the next prime minister: Musharraf

In rare praise for Imran Khan, General (retd) Pervez Musharraf said on Saturday that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf chief had a very good chance of being elected as the prime minister in the upcoming elections.

“His [Imran’s] popularity is on the rise, and he has the potential to improve the country’s situation and do something beneficial for Pakistan,” the All Pakistan Muslim League (APML) leader stated while speaking to Express News.

The former president touted Imran as a ‘better’ choice than Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supreme leader Nawaz Sharif and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari. “They both have had four chances to serve the nation,” remarked Musharraf.

The retired general further added that Imran, unlike his rivals, was an honest and selfless person with the capability of bringing about positive change if he wins the next general

Niazi has the backing of the Army, the stage is set for him. History tells us that licking the Military boots pays off in the end, but at a cost. Let's see if Niazi is prepared to pay the cost, but only time will tell.

There is a difference between Pakistanis living abroad for a couple of years but were born and brought up in the country, and so-called "brown angraiz" Pakistanis who were born and brought up in the West, but like to show their patriotism over the Internet.

There is also a third category of overseas Pakistanis: people who ran away to Canada at a relatively young age in order to get a Canadian passport.

These folks now make multiple excuses to justify why they cannot come back and will not live in "Naya Pakistan" for which they like to fight over the Internet. :101:

Lot of these "senior" analysts have changed their tunes as now the downfall of Shareefs is imminent. Kamran Khan, Habib Akram and Talat Hussain to name a few.
 
Was looking at recent tweets of Reham and it looks like she is ready to publish the book. How much damage her book can do to IK chances? From what I heard she is going to wrote lot of personal stuff in her book to target IK character and also a lot about IK links with deep state. In my view only personal stuff will do the damage otherwise NS survived for decades and kept winning although he had all the support of deep state.

Yet, the same people voted for PTI in 2013. I wonder why they decided to vote for a party that would have ensured that their corruption comes to an end. How stupid of them.

Dont want to butt into a personal matter I dont really care for but this is not an uncommon trend.

You can call it innocence of youth...

I know a Jatoi who voted for PTI as well... Now that he is no longer a teenager and realizes how he owes his whole lifestyle to PPP and their policies, he is suddenly a PPP jiyala

I agree that there are such cases. In PTI jalsas in Islamabad, there are many burger kids of corrupt bureaucrats clamoring for tabdeeli, when true tabdeeli would mean that their daddies would end up in jail.
 
They said till 2013: Imran Khan aik se ziyada seatein ley hee nahi sakta.

Then till 2017 they said: PTI hakoomat mein aa hee nahi sakti.

Then beginning of 2018: Acha PTI election jeet bhee gayee tau IK PM nahi banay ga.

And now: Acha IK PM bann bhee gya tau weak coalition ho gi.

In 2013, insaafians said that PTI will never do lota politics and electables will not be welcome in PTI.

In 2018, PTI has become the flag-bearer for lota politics. Tried and tested politicians who have not don’t anything in the previous tenures have been given tickets.

This is only the beginning - PTI will make further “compromises” and insaafians will continue to defend them.
 
Imran Khan will never be the PM. The next PM will be independent.

The person acceptable to many from PTI is SMQ (Shah Mehmood Qureshi) our ex foreign minister he is current VC of PTI but he always look like a shady character and tries to play on both sides. He came from PPP to PTI in 2012 and still have a soft corner for his old party so i don't think he can remotely controlled if he manage to gain support of his old party.
 
[MENTION=142451]Mian[/MENTION] but do you think that imran wont be the pm and SMQ would be? It would be khan deciding that who should be pm or no? With the jeep symbol i feel that's dangerous for khan.

He seems to be quite aware of how the treatment of minorities in Pakistan needs to be improved, and how there is a link between the amount of corruption and the cycle of poverty - he has been quite honest and transparent. I like him.

He is well aware of treatment of minorities, he spent good amount of time while closing his election campaign yesterday about propaganda being run against him to paint him some sort of fanatic at international level. He talked about minorities and their rights and explained how God we believe in is not for Muslims but entire humanity.

In one of his election rallies attended by thousands in an area where there was hardly any presence of minorities, he took pledge from all his supporters that they will protect and support our minorities.
 
BTW: Faujayoon ka Bhoot bara charloo chayia for PTI to win 70-75 seats from Punjab. They had total 29 seats last time out of which, from Punjab it was in single digits, if I remember quickly. Quite a bit mountain to climb!! - No wonder Faujis have gone multi prong approach...Lotas, Jeep, Mullah, poor guys have to do lot of cooking in the kitchen :yk2

If IK didnt believe in the protection of minorities then he would lose my support. But i believe he is sincere and he cares for all PK's. Minorities suffer like everyone else in a corrupt society.

Allegations are easy to make, lets see some proof. Disqualifying the corrupt and not allowing the Punjab bureaucracy to rig, is not rigging. The best thing Bajwa has done is to stay neutral.

From the looks of it he's accepted anybody and everybody into his party itself so there's no reason why he should stop short of allying with one of the 'old' parties to make it to power.
