Change not far, says Imran Khan

BHALWAL: Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Imran Khan Sunday addressing another mega rally, this time in Bhalwal, predicted “that change was not far”, Geo News reported.

Imran once again lamented the sorry plight of Pakistan, where the poor were cursed to remain poor under the oppression of those powerful who were holding the helms of this country for ages, which, he said would end for good as a "change" was imminent.

PTI leader picked apart the leadership of other political parties especially PML-N.

Nawaz Sharif, he said, was a hypocrite, who never raised a finger at President Asif Ali Zardari or questioned him about the billions of stolen rupees during their three years of alliance, instead they both indulged in savouring roasted pheasants for breakfast together, while poor were dying of hunger.

Responding to Prime Minister, Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani’s statement regarding PTI’s agenda, Khan said his party’s agenda was far better than the ruling party's.

Country was rife with corruption, which, according to Khan, PTI would eradicate in record time.

He vowed to empower the farmers with free fertilizers, seed, and subsidies, so that average production could be brought at least at par with India.

Khan said, “ Our farmer toils all year long, but his labours never bear a fruit which he can pick, the feudal lords always take what is rightfully his.”

He was confident to kill two birds (PML-N and PPP) with one stone in the coming elections.
