Imran Khan says Incumbent govt will collapse if four constituencies are opened: PTI founder


Rawalpindi: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan on Saturday voiced doubts about negotiating with the current government, saying that it would collapse if four constituencies were scrutinized.
During an informal conversation with journalists at Adiala Jail, Khan emphasized the necessity of reinstating his party's mandate before any negotiations could take place. "I will engage in negotiations within the constitutional framework, but what is the point of negotiating with a government that will dissolve if four constituencies are opened?" Khan questioned.
He also revealed that he asked Mahmood Khan Achakzai to initiate discussions with political parties. However, Achakzai reportedly stated he could not negotiate with the military.
In response to a question about his political U-turns, Khan commented, "The biggest U-turn is taken by the one who chanted 'respect the vote' and then respected the boot."
When asked about the expulsion of Sher Afzal Marwat from PTI, Khan initially did not respond. When questioned further, he said, "We will discuss the matter of Sher Afzal Marwat later."
