Which will be the top party after the upcoming general elections?

Being ignorant is bad enough, but arguing to defend your ignorance is a lot worse. To claim that Khaqan Abbasi moved into the PM House after taking oath as PM is as laughable as claiming that the earth is flat.

It is a fact and everyone is aware of it. Everyone but irrational insaafians who are not clutching at straws to defend Imran’s decision to move into the Punjab House.

All the talk of living like a common man and refusing all protocol and VIP facilities have turned out to be nothing put hot air.

He has failed to walk the talk. End of story.

Aren't you the same guy who proudly rendered his services to a convicted criminal, and hailed her as a great future leader. Only then to go and oppose her party at crunch time... how can one take anything you say seriously?
 
Yeah lets ignore the billion dollars worth of LNG scandal by Abbasi or purposefully propping up his AirBlue just because he lived in F7 (which may or not be true)..... You may have voted for PTI but you will always remain a Noora.

:faceplam: Com on bro, it was just a face saving post nothing else. Because before Election that fortune teller made a prediction and said MMA will clean sweep PTI in KPK :)))

Oh people, irony just died here :))
 
Almost every speech or video of him on youtube is in Pashto

So Pervez Khattak's candidate has succeeded.

So why Mehmood?

Honestly I am not liking this nomination at all. This looks like Pervez Khattak has strong armed Imran Khan into it.

What's wrong with Mehmood Khan? He is educated and a new face started his national level politics with PTI in 2012. I can understand the disappointment if Asad Qaiser, Shah Ferman or PK was made CM again but Mehmood isn't a bad choice and it's actually a surprise.

Ok, so let me tell you something about Mehmood Khan (Dont take views of wannabe KPK citizen serioulsy, hope you people know whom i referring to here :)) )

PTI flourished due to him in Malakand Division, he has lots of services to PTI in Malakand Division. His elders were or / are, pro PPP, but he fought his first election as an independent candidate ( Local ) and became Union Council Nazim of Kheri.

In 2012, he was pressurized by elders to join PPP, but he opted for PTI because he thought at that time, that PPP is the corrupt party and should not be joined. So he went against the wishes of his elders, and came into PTI. He remained minsiter fo Sports, Agriculture, tourism in previous govts. Before an year i met one of his secretary and what i found, he talking about his HONESTY. Though i wasn't interested because i never knew who Mehmood sahab is.

Mehmood belongs to the area which is considered to be strongest area of ANP, and basically divided into 3 families. And remember the region of Matta was heavily effected by Terrorist, and most of the families left that aread. But Mehmood and his family never left their ground, and survived that brutal era.

8 MPA's and 3 MNA's, PTI got it's only because of hard work of Mehmood. If you go to Swat, or especially his home town, believe me every single one will praise Mehmood. I would like to list some of his good activities which he done during his tenure.

In 2016, Galiyat Development Authourity(GDA) was made an autonomous body, GDA was able to generate it own revenue worth 160 million & did not get any budget from the KP govt.
- GDA started the anti-enchornchment drive & beautification of galiyat.

In Galliyat alone, forest department has recovered land worth Rs. 2 billion from illegal possession.

Rs1.3 bn spent on various development and reconstruction projects in Naran and Kaghan valleys i.e Construction of various roads to Saiful Muluk Lake, Paras-Sharan road, Jaraid-Shogran road.

A ‘cultural heritage trail’ is being made in Peshawar at the cost of Rs300 million.
The trail will lead to tourists to some historical landmarks and will help to tell the story of the city’s historical past in a more pleasant manner.

Seven parks were created exclusilvely for women in Peshawar.

PTI KP govt handed over 61 rest houses that were being used by various govt departments, now they are used for the promotion of tourism. Govt was spending 100 million every year on the maintenance of the rest houses, but now they are used to generate revenue instead.

KPK was the only province that refused to issue NOC for hunting the Houbara bustard and seiezed the falcon and fined Qatari prince for illegal falcon hunting. And also cracked down on the illegal smuggling of endagered birds.

Iconic Buddha in Swat valley restored after nine years when Taliban defaced it.
-KP govt Directorate of Archaeology became active as:
1) it helped and assisted archaeologists to find 48-feet long 'sleeping Buddha' statue.


KPK first zoo was inagurated in Peshawar. The zoo was spread over a vast area of 29 acres of land and Rs270 million had been spent on it against the estimated cost of Rs2,100 million ( Though some animals / birds died in Zoo due to poor management )

81-km Swat motorway project is undertaken to boost tourism. It will help promote tourism and between 15,000 and 20,000 vehicles will use it daily.

Mahabat Khan Mosque, named after the Mughal governor of Peshawar Nawab Mahabat Khan, has been neglected by the authorities since long. PTI KP govt is spending Rs87.7 million on the renovation of historic Mahabat Khan Mosque.

Reactivated and restored skiing in 'MalamJabba' after the hotel was destroyed by militants labelling skiing as un-islamic. KP govt reconstructed the Malam Jabba ski resort featuring a four-star hotel, a chairlift, a cable car, snowboarding

The 'Malam Jabba International Alpine Ski Cup' was the first int ski championship held at Malam Jabba in the hill station's history. Sixty skiers — 50 men and 10 women — from nine countries, participated in the championship.

Environment friendly camping pods are installed in Thandiani, Sharan, and Bishigran. Tourists can book these pods online from KPK tourism booking site.
The pods are equipped with all the basic necessities that a person requires.

KPK tourasim department from time to time arranged different events to promote tourism in KP:

1. Safari train
2. Water sport event at khanpur
3. Qaqlasht festival.

PTI KPK govt launched a tourist police force in swat, Abbottabad and Nathiagali. This police force has been specially trained to handle accidents and other criminal activities related to tourism.

And i can share some more as well.

Do i dont know why do you people think he is a bad choice??

Last but not the least, i believe in IK. He can spot the talent :)) And i am sure InshAllah his deicison will not disappoint us. And yeah for all who are saying IK got pressurized by Perveez Khattak e.t.c remember IK is not that kind of guy, he can never be blackmailed.


Dont worry about Atif Khan, he will again get a very responsible seat and inshAllah he will deliver like he did in the past.

Great post. i'm always encouraged and uplifted by your posts. My sisters father in law was from swat but he passed away a few years ago and I would have liked to ehar his opinion about KP and swat as he was a frequent traveller there..

Good to know. Hopefully he does well in this role.

As for my earlier response which you quoted I already admitted that I made hasty remarks.
 
Oh bhai it is not a false claim. During his tenure as PM, he continued to live in his house in F-7/2.

A lot of people are not aware of it because he didn’t toot his own horn and didn’t publicize his decision to not move into the PM House.

However, he obviously couldn’t do all of that because it would have put Nawaz in bad light. Anyway, he deserves credit for it regardless of everything else.

He did host his son’s wedding in the PM House though.


So it's just taking your word over anything official which has stated his residence as PM house.

A man is so beigharat he held his sons wedding in an official building but you claim he lived in his house.

Looks a decent CV. The starting point of any PTI REP has to be that the person is there on merit and not corrupt. Then after that we need doer`s that will work for the people and not spend time looking for support for future elections. Lets see where he takes KP!

great post brother thanks for all the detail he always kept a low profile so there was not much about him in media or over internet. I remember Khan mentioning in a speech that Mehmood don't like to show his good work.
 
If you guys are interested here is a video of Raja Yasir from yesterday (front runner in CM Punjab race).

Imran to be elected PM in first round of voting, claims Fawad Chaudhry


ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Spokesman Fawad Chaudhry Said on Thursday that party Chairman Imran Khan will be elected prime minister of the country ‘within the first round’ of vote in the parliament.

The PTI spokesman was addressing a press conference in the capital, where he claimed that his party has support of 180 members in the National Assembly.

He further said that the PTI has 186 members in the Punjab Assembly, which will suffice for claiming majority.

The PTI spokesman said that summoning a session of the National Assembly is the responsibility of the caretaker government, adding that a summary has been sent to summon the session on August 13.

“Imran can take oath on August 15, 16 or 17, and where he will live as a premier is yet to be decided,” he said.

Fawad Chaudhry said that the international leaders are contacting Imran Khan already. “We have decided to review the foreign policy,” said the party spokesman.

While speaking about General Election 2018, the PTI spokesman said that his party received a huge mandate from Karachi and they will fill the ‘political vacuum’ in the city.

Can PTI bring ahead the local government elections to before the end of 2018 after implementing the KP LG system across the country? I think the next LG elections are to be held in 2020 and that would be 2 years in PTI rule and well past the honeymoon period.



I think PTI should issue executive order to implement LG system across country and immediately announce schedule for elections. That would be the real game changer. They can implement it in KP, Punjab and Baluchistan but Sindh would be troublesome.

Next LG elections are in 2019 not 2020 (LG is for 4 years)
 
Being ignorant is bad enough, but arguing to defend your ignorance is a lot worse. To claim that Khaqan Abbasi moved into the PM House after taking oath as PM is as laughable as claiming that the earth is flat.

It is a fact and everyone is aware of it. Everyone but irrational insaafians who are not clutching at straws to defend Imran’s decision to move into the Punjab House.

All the talk of living like a common man and refusing all protocol and VIP facilities have turned out to be nothing put hot air.

He has failed to walk the talk. End of story.

Bhai abhi sirf toss hoa hay. Match abhi baqi hay.
 
The gall of people like [MENTION=131701]Mamoon[/MENTION] to say that IK is not cooperating with vote recount.... when IK was asking for just four halqas to be reopened these same patwaris were saying that IK should accept election results and not create fasad..... bunda kuch bhi ho leken in patwariyon jaisa munafiq na ho.

She is the bahu of Punjab! Came from Wazir tribe of Waziristan got married in DG Khan Punjab and changed the whole politics of Punjab's most backward district by working so hard in last 6/7 years to beat the sardar lagharis and khosas!
 
She's supposedly just taken Abid Sher Ali to the cleaners, had Jugnu Sethi aka Najams wife agreeing with her and kissing up to her, had Hamid Mir, Amir Mateen and now Kamran Khan singing her praises, she's going from strength to strength.

The lads better watching the throne better watch out, at this rate she may well be the heir apparent.

Maybe. Or even using her Waziri credentials cause more heartache for Atif Khan and become the next CM of KPK.

Anyway big slap in the face who've been throwing the misogyny card at Imran Khan and PTI recently.

Listened to her, Hammad and Raja Rasir recently in a few shows and i am still in a shock why on earth PTI never sent these guys on channels in last 5 years?

She is from same Wazir tribe like Gulalai but izat kisi kisi ko raas aati he Gulalai was gifted a reserve women MNA seat in 2013 by PTI and Zartaj contested on general seat in 2013, Lost but kept working hard in her consistency and finally won in 2018 through her hard work on ground instead of going on easy path of reserve MNA/MPA seat like most other women. A woman winning a general seat that too in rural area of Punjab against Sardars is nothing less then a miracle.

I first came across her about a year or two ago when either umar Cheema or one of the other liberal brigade were trying to spread rumours that IK was having an affair with her, and the next time I'm sure it was you on here who said she was incredible and doing a great job on the ground and that Imran Khan rated her very highly. And from there she's just gone from strength to strength. Insha'Allah with so much home grown pti quality coming through like Her, Faisal Vawda, raja Yasir, Farrukh habib etc etc it's the end of electables, and finally we can really imprint our DNA into the party and also Pakistani politics Insha'Allah

Yea she came under attack in media by some lifafas when Gulalai drama started and Zartaj defended khan sahab. Zartaj also worked as a volunteer in SKMCH during her university days. I believe if PTI survive 5 years they will change the whole politics in Pakistan and we will see a repeat of KP in whole Pakistan (2/3rd majority). There will be a grand alliance against PTI in next elections to beat them just like MMA tried and failed in KP.

Cabinet approves five-year internal security policy

ISLAMABAD: Prime MInister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi chairs a meeting of the federal cabinet at Prime Minister House on Tuesday.—APP

ISLAMABAD: Just two days before the expiry of its five-year term, the government on Tuesday took several important decisions, including approval of the National Internal Security Policy (NISP) 2018-23 to address terrorism, extremism and other crimes effectively.
The policy was approved at a meeting of the federal cabinet chaired by Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi. The NISP is based on six approaches — reorient, reimage, reconcile, redistribute, recognise and regional.

A participant of the meeting told Dawn that the NISP 2018-23 was a continuation of the previous policy which was announced in 2013. He said that 120 actions had been recommended in the policy to improve the internal security situation in the country.

The six approaches, he said, provided a detailed implementation plan as to how security forces could overcome the menace of terrorism, extremism and street crimes, besides their own capacity building.
Article continues after ad

Under a separate decision, the meeting approved issuance of Charter Class-II license (domestic) to a new airline called K-2 Airways (pvt) Limited.
The issue of three honoraria equivalent to three basic salaries — which was recently announced by the prime minister — was also discussed during the meeting. Mr Abbasi said his decision was made controversial, but there was nothing worth criticising. He was of the view that there was dichotomy in the honorarium policy as employees of some government departments got one month salary while some received six basic pays.

The cabinet then deferred the issue of proposed approval for the notification of three basic salaries till the next meeting to be held on the last day of the government, on May 31.

The meeting also approved national transport, films and culture policies.
Discussing the issue of cane purchase receipt (CPR), the meeting emphasised the need for streamlining the payment mechanism to farmers and suggested that the provincial governments instead of issuing CPRs or blank paper receipts should issue bank cheques to the farmers.
The cabinet approved appointments of managing director of the National Engineering Services of Pakistan and the board of directors of the National Security Printing Corporation of Pakistan. It also approved the appointment of director general of the Civil Aviation Authority on an acting charge basis.

It approved reconstitution of the 8th Wage Board for newspapers employees by appointing two additional members on the board. A proposal for reconstitution of the board of directors of the Board of Investment was also approved.

The cabinet approved an amendment to rules of the Acceding States (Abolition of Privy Purses and Privileges) Order 1972 (President’s Order No. 15 of 1972).

The meeting also approved a cancer control programme formulated by the Ministry of National Health Services Regulation and Coordination.

So Khaqan Abbasi chaired cabinet meetings at PM House instead of PM Secretariat. Hosted his son's wedding in the PM house but sure he doesn't live there. There is no proof but we shall take Mamoon's word, who is a proven liar.
 
So dust has started to settle and real news about about the new KPK CM is emerging. More and more journalists now are reporting positive things about him.
 
Ok, so let me tell you something about Mehmood Khan (Dont take views of wannabe KPK citizen serioulsy, hope you people know whom i referring to here :)) )

PTI flourished due to him in Malakand Division, he has lots of services to PTI in Malakand Division. His elders were or / are, pro PPP, but he fought his first election as an independent candidate ( Local ) and became Union Council Nazim of Kheri.

In 2012, he was pressurized by elders to join PPP, but he opted for PTI because he thought at that time, that PPP is the corrupt party and should not be joined. So he went against the wishes of his elders, and came into PTI. He remained minsiter fo Sports, Agriculture, tourism in previous govts. Before an year i met one of his secretary and what i found, he talking about his HONESTY. Though i wasn't interested because i never knew who Mehmood sahab is.

Mehmood belongs to the area which is considered to be strongest area of ANP, and basically divided into 3 families. And remember the region of Matta was heavily effected by Terrorist, and most of the families left that aread. But Mehmood and his family never left their ground, and survived that brutal era.

8 MPA's and 3 MNA's, PTI got it's only because of hard work of Mehmood. If you go to Swat, or especially his home town, believe me every single one will praise Mehmood. I would like to list some of his good activities which he done during his tenure.

In 2016, Galiyat Development Authourity(GDA) was made an autonomous body, GDA was able to generate it own revenue worth 160 million & did not get any budget from the KP govt.
- GDA started the anti-enchornchment drive & beautification of galiyat.

In Galliyat alone, forest department has recovered land worth Rs. 2 billion from illegal possession.

Rs1.3 bn spent on various development and reconstruction projects in Naran and Kaghan valleys i.e Construction of various roads to Saiful Muluk Lake, Paras-Sharan road, Jaraid-Shogran road.

A ‘cultural heritage trail’ is being made in Peshawar at the cost of Rs300 million.
The trail will lead to tourists to some historical landmarks and will help to tell the story of the city’s historical past in a more pleasant manner.

Seven parks were created exclusilvely for women in Peshawar.

PTI KP govt handed over 61 rest houses that were being used by various govt departments, now they are used for the promotion of tourism. Govt was spending 100 million every year on the maintenance of the rest houses, but now they are used to generate revenue instead.

KPK was the only province that refused to issue NOC for hunting the Houbara bustard and seiezed the falcon and fined Qatari prince for illegal falcon hunting. And also cracked down on the illegal smuggling of endagered birds.

Iconic Buddha in Swat valley restored after nine years when Taliban defaced it.
-KP govt Directorate of Archaeology became active as:
1) it helped and assisted archaeologists to find 48-feet long 'sleeping Buddha' statue.


KPK first zoo was inagurated in Peshawar. The zoo was spread over a vast area of 29 acres of land and Rs270 million had been spent on it against the estimated cost of Rs2,100 million ( Though some animals / birds died in Zoo due to poor management )

81-km Swat motorway project is undertaken to boost tourism. It will help promote tourism and between 15,000 and 20,000 vehicles will use it daily.

Mahabat Khan Mosque, named after the Mughal governor of Peshawar Nawab Mahabat Khan, has been neglected by the authorities since long. PTI KP govt is spending Rs87.7 million on the renovation of historic Mahabat Khan Mosque.

Reactivated and restored skiing in 'MalamJabba' after the hotel was destroyed by militants labelling skiing as un-islamic. KP govt reconstructed the Malam Jabba ski resort featuring a four-star hotel, a chairlift, a cable car, snowboarding

The 'Malam Jabba International Alpine Ski Cup' was the first int ski championship held at Malam Jabba in the hill station's history. Sixty skiers — 50 men and 10 women — from nine countries, participated in the championship.

Environment friendly camping pods are installed in Thandiani, Sharan, and Bishigran. Tourists can book these pods online from KPK tourism booking site.
The pods are equipped with all the basic necessities that a person requires.

KPK tourasim department from time to time arranged different events to promote tourism in KP:

1. Safari train
2. Water sport event at khanpur
3. Qaqlasht festival.

PTI KPK govt launched a tourist police force in swat, Abbottabad and Nathiagali. This police force has been specially trained to handle accidents and other criminal activities related to tourism.

And i can share some more as well.

Do i dont know why do you people think he is a bad choice??

Last but not the least, i believe in IK. He can spot the talent :)) And i am sure InshAllah his deicison will not disappoint us. And yeah for all who are saying IK got pressurized by Perveez Khattak e.t.c remember IK is not that kind of guy, he can never be blackmailed.


Dont worry about Atif Khan, he will again get a very responsible seat and inshAllah he will deliver like he did in the past.

Great post!
 
N league doing propaganda on Mahmood Khan only paying 1200 RS tax despite being a billionaire.

Apparently, citizens from SWAT are exempt from taxes.
 
ISLAMABAD: President Mamnoon Hussain has summoned the new session of the National Assembly on Aug 13, approving a summary sent to him by caretaker Prime Minister Nasirul Mulk for the purpose.

The prime minister forwarded the summary on Thursday after the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) called upon the interim government to summon the session of the lower house so that the process of formation of the new government could take place.

The PTI also asked President Hussain to drop his plan to proceed to Ireland on a three-day official visit on Aug 16 as uncertainty prevails whether prime minister-in-waiting Imran Khan can take the oath of his office on Aug 14 or not.

PTI spokesman Fawad Chaudhry expressed the hope that Mr Khan would take the oath between Aug 15 and 17. He said the absence of the president did not matter as Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani — who acts as acting president — could administer the oath of PM office to Imran Khan.

Media reports suggest that it is a desire of Mr Khan to take the oath on Independence Day — Aug 14.

Mr Chaudhry claimed that the PTI had secured 180 seats in the National Assembly to form its government at the Center. “There is no hurdle in Imran Khan’s way to become next prime minister of the country.”

He said the PTI had also won 186 seats of the Punjab Assembly out of total 372.

He said a meeting of the PTI’s Sindh parliamentary party had decided that the party would gift mega development projects to Karachi. He said Mr Khan had directed the party’s provincial leaders to focus on underdeveloped areas of interior Sindh.

PTI leader Naeemul Haq told the media that his party had demanded an early session of the National Assembly. In reply to a question, he said it was a job of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), and not the PTI, to reopen constituencies and issue notifications of successful candidates.

On the other hand, sources in the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) told Dawn that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif urged President Hussain and the governors of Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan to follow the example of ex-governor of Sindh Muhammad Zubair and step down from their offices.

However, sources close to the president told Dawn that Mr Hussain would not tender his resignation, but decided to leave for Ireland to attend an award-distribution ceremony of Royal Collage of Physician where he would also receive an honourary degree. One of the reasons behind the president’s visit is said to be an escape to avoid administering the oath to Imran Khan.

It has been learnt that soon after Imran Khan takes the oath as 21st prime minister of the country, the governors of three provinces are likely to step down.

Sources close to Nawaz Sharif told Dawn that he was unhappy and wondered why the president and three governors appointed by the last PML-N government were still sitting in their offices when Muhammad Zubair had resigned on July 28.

“Why they [president and three governors] stick to their seats when Zubair has stepped down,” the incarcerated PML-N supreme leader was quoted as telling some party leaders who had met him at the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences.

Mr Sharif was of the view that President Hussain should not administer oath to Imran Khan and resign immediately.

The PML-N leadership feared that that if the president and three governors did not resign, they could be removed by the new PTI-led government which would cause humiliation for the N-League.

So it's just taking your word over anything official which has stated his residence as PM house.

A man is so beigharat he held his sons wedding in an official building but you claim he lived in his house.

Of course you don’t have to take my word. You can believe that he lived in Buckingham Palace as PM if that is what you want to believe.

He is no saint either, but we must be able to give credit where it’s due. Nothing is always black and white.
 
Oh people, irony just died here :))

I will tell you what the irony is. Irony is when the person who claimed that PTI didn’t mess up the BRT project (and ran away when presented with facts and figures) accuses others of being wannabe KP citizens.
 
[MENTION=138254]Syed1[/MENTION]

Imran is the one who promised the nation that accountability will start from him (even though he has been running from his foreign funding case for 4 years), and he is the one who promised to change the landscape of Pakistan politics. The Patwaris didn’t.

Hence, he has to be judged by a different standard, he has brought it on himself. Otherwise, there is no difference between him and the rest.

Imran talked a lot for 22 years, but talk is always cheap. It is easy to explain how to ride a horse unless you are the one holding the reigns.

Now that he is in power, he will get a reality check about many, many things, but he has no choice but to live up to the expectations of the people because he has brought it upon himself. Every decision of his will be scrutinized and deservedly so.

As they say, ghuroor ka sar neecha. Imran has bordered on arrogance and narcissism over the years and how he supposedly has the magic formula to change the fortunes of the country, and people should simply do as he says.

This attitude has trickled down to his supporters as well, who have also become arrogant with their belief that only Imran Khan and PTI can steer the country in the right direction, and if you don’t buy all of that, you are either a patwari or someone who benefits from corruption.

I do hope that Imran succeeds, but at the same time, it is essential that he along with his irrational supporters are humbled on some fronts and get reality checks of some sorts.

This no protocol and no VIP culture showbaazi has already backfired big time. He should have first done some research if moving into the Ministers’ Enclave or any other low profile residence would have been feasible before giving himself brush and claiming that he will live like a common man.

The only common men who live in Punjab House can be found in servant quarters.
 
Also, people have an issue with Khaqan Abbasi hosting his son’s valima in PM House, but have no problem with Shah Mehmood Qureshi bulldozing the wall of Bahauddin Zakariya University in Multan to accommodate his son’s wedding reception.

The hypocrisy and lack of shame is off the charts.

Yes this must be fake news too.
 
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Friday accepted Imran Khan's apology for violating secrecy of the ballot on election day and withdrew its notice against him — removing one hurdle from the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) chairman's path in taking oath as the prime minister next week.

PTI Chairman Imran Khan casts his vote at a polling station in Islamabad on July 25. ─ File
Khan on July 25 had cast his vote at a polling station of NA-53 (Islamabad) where he defeated former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi. TV footage showed Khan, accompanied by his friends and supporters, including Zulfi Bokhari, publicly stamping his ballot paper on the presiding officer’s table.

The ECP, in a 3-1 vote, accepted Khan's apology. Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) retired Justice Sardar Muhammad Raza disagreed with the ECP's Sindh, Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa members, who were in favour of accepting the apology.

Justice Raza was of the view that evidence showing disrespect of the vote should be recorded.

With the withdrawal of its notice, the ECP is likely to issue a victory notification for the PTI chief for NA-53, which had been withheld due to this case.

Unconditional apology
Earlier today, Imran Khan's lawyer Babar Awan submitted an unconditional written apology before the commission on behalf of the PTI supremo.

In his written reply, Khan mentioned that he values the ECP as well as the electoral rules. He said that on July 25, he entered an overcrowded polling station, without any companions, to cast his vote. According to Khan's reply, furniture was lying everywhere in the station.

"I was told to put my ballot on a table and stamp it when I asked the staffers present there about where to mark the ballot," Khan told the ECP.

He added that the media recorded footage of him without his consent while he was casting his vote, and that he had not intended to violate the law.

Khan won all five National Assembly constituencies he contested from in the polls. The ECP's notifications about his victory from three constituencies had already been conditionally issued, and a victory notification for NA-131 was issued on Thursday.

Secrecy of the ballot

The secrecy of ballot is guaranteed by the Constitution under Article 226 that states: "All elections under the Constitution, other than those of the Prime Minister and the Chief Minister, shall be by secret ballot."

Section 178 of the Elections Act 2017 specifically deals with the secrecy of ballot. It reads: "….A person is guilty of interference with the secrecy of voting if he:

(a) interferes or attempts to interfere with a voter when he records his vote;
(b) in any manner obtains or attempts to obtain in a polling station information as to the candidate or candidates for whom a voter is about to vote;
(c) communicates at any time any information obtained in a polling station as to the candidate…for whom a voter is about to vote;
(d) takes or attempts to take a photograph of the marked ballot paper by using cell phone camera or any other device to interfere with secrecy of vote;
(e) in any other manner discloses the secrecy of the vote.”

These two sections mean that Imran Khan, as voter along with the polling staff of that polling station and all TV cameras covering his act of marking his ballot, had committed an ‘illegal practice’.

For the First and Many questions you raised about IK promises. Let patwaris and other parties give him 5 years to govern you and I will find out whether he will deliver or fail.

Fixing something half broken can be fixed quickly but these thiefs like nawaz and zardari looted the hell of out a country. Country is in a state where no one want to give them even a loan anymore thats how bad it is.

IK mission is big and v v tough to achieve but for this to be achieved IK needs help from his own ppl mostly. You are right about IK and its promises he got carried away but the man is made of steel mind and never give up attitude even if delivers 30% off what he has said he will achieve in his 5 yrs term and nawaz lotas dont try to overturn his govt then it will be the biggest achievement since the country gained its freedom in 1947.

About your question that Wedding of SMQ son well why didn’t media raised the concern.
 
So middle class people in karachi, hyderabad are taxed while billionaires in swat are enjoying. Truly the rest of the country are taking karachiites for a ride.

FATA and PATA (provincially administered tribal area) were declared tax free zone back in 2010/2011 because the areas are badly affected by insurgencies and internal displacement of people due to military operations and natural calamities.
 
So middle class people in karachi, hyderabad are taxed while billionaires in swat are enjoying. Truly the rest of the country are taking karachiites for a ride.

Almost all of Pakistan is taxed except for a few specific designated tax free zones. Those zones are either suffering from harsh conditions due to natural calamities or terrorism or are meant to encourage industrial development in the area. Lahore, Rawalpindi, Islamabad all get taxed.
 
Chairman PTI and PM designate Imran Khan has nominated Ch Sarwar as Governor of Punjab and Asad Qaiser as Speaker of National Assembly.

IK gives another surprise lol media kept telling us that SMQ/PK/Shafqat/Alvi are in race of NA Speaker.

Ch Sarwar as Governor Punjab can make a very good combination if the CM Punjab is young and not much experienced
 
I only mentioned Karachi because it has the largest urban middle class population i.e. the segment of society that bankrolls everyone else. Lahore, Isl are also paying of course.

I think this tax free zone thing should end. Perhaps the ceiling for application of income tax should be increased.
 
Zartaj taking Shahbaz Taseer to cleaners :)) more power to you girl!

He's attempting to reply with logic and facts, when he's not got logic or facts on his side. He's educated way above his intelligence level.

Seems like SMQ has released the names of Asad Qaiser as Speaker of NA and Ch Sarwar as Governor of Punjab. Asad Qaiser is an original class of 96 PTI member, so seems to have been roundly applauded by Twitterati, however most feel Ch. Sarwar is wasted as governor of Punjab and instead needs a pp seat and made CM of Punjab. Do you think with IK's backing, Sarwar can rise above the usual handcuffs applied to a person in provincial governorship position?
 
The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) on Friday announced Asad Qaiser's name as the party's nominee for the post of the National Assembly speaker.

Senator Chaudhry Muhammad Sarwar's name was also announced as the party's nominee for Punjab governor.

The announcement of nomination was made by PTI Vice President Shah Mahmood Qureshi in a press conference.

Hailing from Swabi District of the KP, Qaiser was an educationist prior to entering politics. He started his political career with the Jamaat-i-Islami but teamed up with Khan when he launched his new political party in 1996.

Qaiser worked his way up the party ranks and was made the provincial president in 2008. He became a member of the KP assembly for the first time in 2013.

Back then, he was reportedly also in the running for the KP chief minister's job, but the role was eventually landed by Pervez Khattak.

Qaiser was then elected the provincial assembly's speaker — a position he held for the entirety of the previous PTI government in KP.

Senator Chaudhry Sarwar is a former member of the British parliament, who swapped his overseas political career to do the same in the country of his birth.

Although born and raised in Pakistan, Sarwar moved to Scotland in the 70s and, after a successful business career, joined local politics there.

In 1997, he was elected as MP for Glasgow Govan — a feat he would repeat in future.

In 2013, however, Sarwar left British politics to serve the old country, and joined the PML-N. The same year, following his party's electoral victory, he was made the Governor Punjab.

As the governor, Sarwar clashed with his own party's government and eventually left it to join the PTI.

Party coordination with MNAs

Qureshi further announced that on the night of August 13, after the assembly takes oath, Imran Khan will chair a meeting of all the PTI and coalition party MNAs to discuss their combined future strategy.

PTI has also nominated party representatives that will keep tabs on and coordinate with MNAs from regions designated to them.

"Pervez Khattak will look after the KP and Fata region, Arif Alvi will take care of Sindh. Shafqat Mehmood will coordinate with MNAs from central Punjab, Chaudhry Mumhamm Sarwar will coordinate with members from west Punjab while Amir Kiyani will coordinate with north Punjab and I will take care of the coordination with members from south Punjab," Qureshi announced during the press conference.

IK really duping our media with these out of the box announcements, guys like Asad Qaiser and Mehmood Khan weren't even being discussed and now they have landed important roles.

And Ch Sarwar wasn't in the governor race too it was between Ijaz CH, Babar Awan and a few others

Asad Qaiser is experienced he was KP Speaker for last 5 years. I also wanted to see Sarwar as CM but him as governor can work in our favor too if we are going to come up with a fresh CM the combo can do wonders with IK backing.

The question now is who is going to be our senator from Punjab? Sarwar will have to resign from Senate now and there are more then a few names from Punjab in PTI siting outside NA. Amin Aslam, Babar Awan, Waleed Iqbal, Umar Cheema. I would like to see Umar Cheema or Waleed in Senate. Amin Aslam can win in by elections of Attock and join NA while Babar Awan can be given NA53 by elections
 
Asad Qaiser is experienced he was KP Speaker for last 5 years. I also wanted to see Sarwar as CM but him as governor can work in our favor too if we are going to come up with a fresh CM the combo can do wonders with IK backing.

Great suggestions, totally agree with your plan of attack. Amin is needed as MNA, desperately need him to win (hopefully with Major saab's backing) so he can become our environment minister and make headway in the 10 billion tree tsunami as well as other things. Babar Awan can win & become Law minster.

Will it be a bit much getting Waleed Iqbal into the senate if his mother is made the president also? I had to double back when you said Umar Cheema, I read it as the rat faced repoirter with a strange fixation with IK's personal life.
 
What powers do the governors have? I thought they were ceremonial appointments.

I think we are giving law ministry to MQM's Farugh Naseem and i am ok with it he is one of the finest guy you can find in our politics. Need to check Major Tahir mood because he will be upset if he is out of CM race.

Justice Nasira name appeared on scene 2 weeks ago but it's not being discussed anymore because according to rumors opposition is in the position to come up with their own president because combined they got more numbers in provincial assemblies and senate (needed for president). Fazlu is already lobbying to become president but Zardari is also looking at this seat to get legal immunity as president.

Umar Sarfraz Cheema is a very old PTI worker and before 2011 we only had Umar Cheema and IK himself sitting on every channel as PTI rep.
 
He's attempting to reply with logic and facts, when he's not got logic or facts on his side. He's educated way above his intelligence level.

Seems like SMQ has released the names of Asad Qaiser as Speaker of NA and Ch Sarwar as Governor of Punjab. Asad Qaiser is an original class of 96 PTI member, so seems to have been roundly applauded by Twitterati, however most feel Ch. Sarwar is wasted as governor of Punjab and instead needs a pp seat and made CM of Punjab. Do you think with IK's backing, Sarwar can rise above the usual handcuffs applied to a person in provincial governorship position?

Ch Sarwar will be wasted in a ceremonial role of governor unless he works closely with the CM and becomes the defacto CM. The PTI may only have one chance to change PK politics forever, if they fail it will be back to the crooked Nooras and AZ in a few years time.
 
According to reports Hamza Shehbaz is also leaving NA124 to keep his PP seat so now there are going to be 2 by elections on NA seats of Lahore. I don't see PTI winning NA124 at all.
 
From what i recall, Didnt Ch Sarwar leave PMLN because he didn’t like the Governor Punjab role?

What powers do the governors have? I thought they were ceremonial appointments.

As a governor he will have enough power to organize party in whole Punjab he knows all the tricks and is very good at typical beradri politics of Punjab.

He will be given free reign by IK to do that, whereas under the Sharif's he'd have been at the beck and call of SS and his son

I guess he's looking to make himself leader of opposition in Punjab assembly. I don't think PTI have anything to worry about from him from that stand point, any of the guys in the running would make mince meat out of him from the lectern, it's just if he brings Gangster tactics and the Lahore Dolphin force into play, all the more reason for IK to depoliticise and clean up the police force in Punjab asap

If Hamza becomes opp leader in Punjab PTI should be thankful to PMLN :)) But i think Khawaja Saad will be made opp leader but there is a tricky situation if Khawaja becomes opp leader in Punjab PMLN chances of losing NA131 in by elections increase massively.

They seem to have more difficult decisions to make than PTI, then again they're literally fighting for their lives aren't they, if they do survive the next 6 months, I can see them splitting along Nawaz/Shehbaz lines, with the Shehbaz one surviving.
 
Didn’t Sarwar say he doesn’t want to be the Punjab Governor a couple of days ago? What changed?

Looks like a lot changed because SMQ after rejecting foreign ministry a few days ago is showing his interest in this ministry again
 
I will tell you what the irony is. Irony is when the person who claimed that PTI didn’t mess up the BRT project (and ran away when presented with facts and figures) accuses others of being wannabe KP citizens.

Haha and again i am going to expose that how much of a biggest level Jhoota you are.

Time for a humble pie

I openly accepted that BRT project was messed up by PTI and you can see proof here : www.pakpassion.net/ppforum/showthre...-PTI-Performance-so-far&p=9763516#post9763516

I am not a blind hater / supporter like you, i always talk with proofs and facts. And once again you are caught up with your propagandas.

And by the way janab, meri ummar ab bhagnay wali nahi hai ;) it suits you better so now please run.

:)))
 
Of course you don’t have to take my word. You can believe that he lived in Buckingham Palace as PM if that is what you want to believe.

He is no saint either, but we must be able to give credit where it’s due. Nothing is always black and white.

Did you write this with straight face? :))
 
SMQ has the look of a statesman, a real politician, that goes massively in his favour over JKT. Sadly it seems he doesn't have the temperement to match if rumour and conjecture are believed. I think he'll be a great foreign minister, he doesn't back down, as we found during the Raymond Davis case.
 
Just listening to Khara such and according to the programme SS is going to get arrested within three weeks time because the authorities now have a state witness against him.

Heard same from at least 2 other programs in last few days. Ahad Cheema and Fawad Hassan Fawad both are ready as witness

SMQ is a financially clean man but his issue is his insecurity otherwise he can deliver.

Hopefully him being away from the rest of the guys keeps him away from the daily intrigue and can concentrate on foreign policy and not trying to inch closer to the throne
 
PTI spokesman Fawad Chaudhry said that Khan would not stay at the PM House or Punjab House in Islamabad.

"Imran, being the prime minister, will stay at the ministers' enclave, however, he may to stay at the Punjab House for a few days because of repair of the house," he explained.
