Imran needs to get rid of a leech and khaga like Umar Cheema...I know him personally and nothing good he will be doing if he gets some sort of power!
I also found out that there are quite a few corruption charges against him too

Yaar, you are talking about an ideal democracy
Of course we dont have that and civilian govt is to be blamed for it. Did you read how in Wikileaks Kayani suggested that he would like Asfandar Khan to become the PM? I mean who on God damn earth he thinks of himself? Did the Pakistani public voted for Asfandar? Who gives the CAOS the right to nominate HIS MAN for the top position in the parliament?
Nothing is stopping the civilians from controlling ISI but Imran has shown too much leniancy on ISI. I am not convinced he will prioritize this issue. I mean its noble that Imran will work on education and health care and I am convinced he can bring a revolutionary change in these sects. But i am thinking that this can wait until 2017
Our immediate concern is Army and i want ISI to be accountable to parliament. I want the ISI chief to report to the President of the country. I want the supreme court and the media to take suo-moto actions and criticize the Army where its due.
There are only 2 options. Nawaz and Imran. Imran is a good long term prospect but currently, i am leaning towards Nawaz for his touch stance against Army.
If Imran can convince me he is seriously about dealing with Army (and he can show this by doing a dharna outside ISI building) than i will vote for him. Otherwise, I see little reason to support him currently.

They are doing alright in Pasthun Belt. Will probably have to make alliance with Balouch Nationalists.
OUR STAFF REPORTER
SAHIWAL - MQM ticket-holder in PP-221 Siddique Shean along with his hundreds of companions has joined the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf.
Talking to the newsmen, he said that he joined the PTI after being impressed by PTI Chief Imran Khan’s personality and political sagacity. He said that district organiser Shakeel Khan’s working dedication has also impressed him. He said that a voice should be raised against injustice. He said that in the society everyone should have been conscious whether he is not playing a role in injustice to the down trodden. He said that the people should take remedial measure in this regard.

he didn't get many votes in last election but every vote counts and I am glad he has hoped on the good guys side.
A guy who was dumb enough to contest an election in Sahiwal on MQM ticket, wont be much good for PTI

Lol
rumors are that some of his family members didn't vote for him in last election. I am not sure if he is expecting a pti ticket or just joined as an ordinary member a long with his supporters.
QUestion is, will Imran accept him in PTI? after seeing his background with such a filthy party.
The development is expected to be followed by provincial leaders from other political parties joining the PTI. Sources said Shabzada Nisar Jilani from, Arbab Najeebullah, Wajhi-uz-Zaman, Ahmad Kundi, Ghaffar Mohmand, Hashim Khan and former Town nazim III Yaseen Khan Khalil were likely to join the PTI.
Former PMLN MNA Ch Ishfaq Taj of Shakargarh joins PTI after meeting Chairman Tehreek Insaf Imran Khan at his residence in Zaman Park, President Punjab Ahsan Rasheed, Regional Organiser Barristor Mansoor Sarwar and Member Punjab Council Saqib Idrees Taj was also present.
Sources said the PTI leadership including Imran Khan and PTI Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) chief Asad Qaiser along with its Finance Secretary Ashfaq Paracha and Nayyar Babar held several rounds of talks to woo the influential Babar family to join the PTI. The sources said that four rounds of talks were held between the family members of late Naseerullah Babar, including his sisters Safia Jehangir and Kishwar Babar, with the PTI leadership in KP.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan has said that the winds of change are blowing across the entire national spectrum which will destroy the citadels of corruption of the ruling mafias who have looted and destroyed the country. He was addressing a press conference at PTI Central Secretariat in Islamabad on the eve of Brigadier (Retired) Ismail Khan from PF 23 and Ahmad Habib Kundi from D. I. Khan joining the party along with hundreds of their supporters. Imran Khan welcomed them to the party and hoped that their joining would further strengthen the party in Khyber Pakhtunkhawa.

Naseerullah Babar's family has joined PTI in Nowshera
I hear a certain Prince Jam Kaim (another feudal) was made VP PTI (Sindh) to revive fortunes in the 2 NA seats held by ANP in Karachi.
being a feudal is not wrong as long as you do not espouse it to be the roots of all of Pakistans problems. I would like to know how Mr Jam became the VP of Sindh knowing as Imran Khan talks about PTI being a democratic party. I think we will be seriously disappointed by Imran Khans lack of vision. I have no doubts about his integrity but decisions such as these would turn away many liberals like me to question his sanity. In any case it is a good sign in a way as populist decisions like these may gain foothold and new faces may come forward. However, the talk of status quo being smashed to bits will seem immature

I have a bit of a problem with people are known by deeds of an extrajudical murderer. I thought Imran Khan believed in the supremacy of law and judicial processes.. You know those followed by Quaid-e-Azam

I am not a fan of this prince Jam Kaim. PTI Sindh is a complete joke. I personally wanted Dr. Arif Alvi demoted from being general secertary to the president of Sindh instead of Naeem-ul-Haq. I also disagree with making this guy the vice president of PTI. I would have preffered someone like Firdous Naqvi or Najeeb Haroon Promoted for this job.
The move is to get more presence in rural sindh. He has deep connections in sindh and PTI wants to capitalize on that.
Sindh is the hardest province to get votes from, for any party besides PPP, and in karachi and hyderabad, for MQM.
There is nothing wrong with this move, if Jam Kaim is not a typical feudal. This is required to get some votes from Sindh.
Fair enough.
I don't have problem with Jahngir tareen he is also somewhat of a feudal/Industrialist because he is clean, pays his taxes and is humble but some of the pics of this guy that I have seen online just make me laugh.
Hah, have you seen the one with the tiger skin suit?
PETA should be alerted.![]()
^^ Oh hello bhai, i'm NOT an Insafian.
So everyone in PTI is pretty much kosher for me.![]()

Mian Azhar ex-governor of Punjab has a good reputation but again I don't know much about him.

Earlier, younger brother of Ex Provincial Minister Iftikhar Mohmand and renowned political leaders of Takht Bhai Ghafar Khan Mohmand, joined Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf along with his aides and family notables. Meanwhile, a local leader of Khandar klay of Nowshera District Mr. Khyber Khan who is also president of Transport goods association announced his decision of joining PTI.
Good luck to PTI, they are making real inroads in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, I hope they will start from scratch, create a new constitution and not continue the current one which has been used and abused by various military dictators and is locked away somewhere in Toba Tek Singh. For this reason I prefer an Arab-like revolution but people still have loyalties to the current parties in power. Difficult to call the 2013 elections, PPP administration is unpopular, PML-N's vote bank in Punjab is being threatened (masterstroke by Zardari by forming alliance with PML-Q) so PTI has a chance to gain some seats, heck 1 seat is a good achievement. Is Imran standing in a constituency in 2013 ?
Meanwhile, a prominent businessman of Peshawar Qaiser Javed joined Pakistan Tahreek-e-Insaf along with his family members, sources siad on Saturday.
He expressed his full loyalties with PTI Chairman Imran Khan. He made this announcement during the recent visit of Imran Khan to Peshawar. Taking oath on the Holy Quran, Qaiser Javed said he promised to be an honest and faithful worker of PTI. He said Imran Khan was their leader and he would not avoid making any sacrifice for the party.
Chairman PTI Imran Khan congratulated Qaiser Javed and his family for entering to the fold of PTI. A large number of workers chanted slogans in favour of the party on the occasion.
Sialkot—Local leader of PML (Q) and former UC Nazim Ch. Umer Abdullah Ghumman has joined Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) with his hundreds of supporters on Thursday. He announced this in Sialkot Press Club during a crowded press conference. He said that PTI was the only party, which could steer the country from a downward spiral of crisis to safe shores.
He said that Imran Khan was the only leader with clean back ground and true commitment who could lead the nation in present hard times.
Where's the Gujranwala Jalsa thread insaftak?
In July when I was doing my charity work for IKCA , a Tehreek-e-Insaaf member phoned me. He said he got my number from the head office. He wanted to join us during one of our collections. I was a bit suspicious of his motives and also because I didn't know him I didn't want to risk giving him a bucket. I said there are already 4 in the car and declined his offer to join us. He then asked if I was interested in joining the party as a member , again I declined and said I wanted to concentrate on the fundraising and maybe in the future. ( Not sure if he was serious or not)
From another thread.
Mian Azhar thinking of joining PTI.
Lahore - Former Punjab governor and Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) president Mian Azhar has decided to join the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI), after being invited by PTI Chairman Imran Khan, and will make a formal announcement on October 5, PTI sources claimed on Wednesday.
He has given a positive response to the PTI chairman and said that he along with his loyalists will join the revolutionary political party. During a meeting with Imran at his Garden Town residence, Azhar, who was a veteran Muslim Leaguer and had good connections with politicians, assured the PTI chairman that he would try to strengthen his voice against corruption and incompetent politicians.
PTI Punjab President Ahsan Rashid and PTI Lahore President Mahmood Rasheed, who accompanied Imran to Azhar’s house, termed the former governor’s possible joining of the PTI as a good omen. They believed that Azhar had a good position in the politics of Central and South Punjab. Mahmood told Pakistan Today that Azhar expressed full confidence on Imran’s leadership and political vision of the PTI during the half-hour long meeting.
The former governor praised Imran’s struggle for social service in form of a cancer hospital and his campaign against corruption in politics. He assured full support to the PTI chairman in his noble work, adding that it was the moral duty of every Pakistani to support the truth.
Mahmood said the party had achieved political strength and was getting more and more acceptance from national political figures. He predicted that more national level leaders will join the PTI in the coming days. Azhar could not be contacted to get confirmation of his joining the PTI.
Separately, Imran inaugurated a new block at Shaukat Khanum Hospital. He said that the US had lost the war in Afghanistan and was now trying its best to make Pakistan a scapegoat. He said that Pakistan had suffered the most in the war on terror and ruled out any resolution to the problem in the Tribal Areas through military means, adding that negotiations was the only remedy.
PTI Central Women Wing President was invited to a reception ceremony by recently appointed Joint Secretary PTI Dr. Seema Zia. At the event various prominent female personalities from Karachi joined PTI namely; Ameena Syed (Director Oxford University Press), Haseena Moeen (Author, Intellectual, Writer), Naushaba Burney (Journalists, Educationist), Dr. Talat Vizarat (Former Head of I.R. Department, Karachi University), Fauzia Zubair (Educationists) & others. Mrs. Kasuri congratulated all the dignitaries for their bold step to join PTI and hoped that more females will come to join the movement of justice. PTI Sindh President Naeem Ul Haque, ISF Sindh President Alamgir Khan, ISF Karachi President Arsalan Ghumman, Faisal Malik, Imran Ghazali, Yazdani Zia and others were also present.
Mian Azhar lost the election after he joined/founded PML-Q
I havent heard of any corruption charges against him though.
Great news ...Mian Azhar is not a corrupt guy as far as I know.![]()
"The PTI chief lauded Azhar’s son Hammad for convincing his father to join the PTI and urged the younger generation to inform their elders that change for a better future was all the more imminent and the country could not survive without it."
I think its game.set.match.
can we have elections pls, i just want to see PTI winning more than expected and the expressions on the faces of those who assure us that they are PTI or any other clean political party sympathizer but deep down they still support their ethnic parties. there are many in pakistan and i just wanto see their faces.

It's nowhere close to game set and match yet. PTI might win more than expected, but PTI will not win enough seats to form the govt.
I dont want PTI to just win more than expected. I want them to win enough seats to form the govt. A lot of work is required for that to happen. So elections right now, wont favor PTI winning.
MQM is not easy in Karachi cuz they wont let free and fair election happen.
are you really that stupid? which world are you living in?
Agree with waqar,
Right now PTI could pick up 40-50 National assembly but if given one more year PTI will have enough capacity to win big in 2013 elections that is why I have started to think that it might be a good move by PTI to let this government finish it's term and fully expose all parties.
The pressure on PML(N) is already too much and they have to do something drastic to stop the massive growth of PTI in Punjab or they will forever lose Punjab to PTI.
My analysis is based on the fact that I've spent more time in Karachi than you.
Even though people do vote for them but reality is that if people go out and vote for imran khan or any other party, mqm bhai loug will add more votes for altaf in that area....seen that happen in not so mqm dominated areas...
and if you dont vote in Karachi, your vote automatically goes to MQM cuz of the cleverness of mqm sector area folks... wherever mqm is in status quo in Karachi, its hard to beat them cuz they wont let others take over.
