Imran Khan is the ONLY leader in the history of Pakistan who has genuinely worked his way up to the top.
Sadly nobody understands this. People belittle his struggles by mocking him but let me tell you, these Zardaris and Nawaz Sharifs
have been given parties to lead, on a platter...
Zardari hijacked PPP after Benazir's death, Nawaz was launched in an established party by Gen Zia...
None had to actually struggle.
The notorious maulanas got their place by joining those in power or the 2 mainstream parties.
No party except MQM was formed through some form of the democratic process, but that too involved target killings, Bhatta collection, and gundagardi; then Altaf hijacked MQM from the founders. MQM was run by terror and thus that does not qualify as a genuinely democratic party
It was so easy for Imran Khan to join any mainstream party and become a minister and then work his way up like the others. He had offers from almost every government ever since he entered politics...
He could have enjoyed a very successful career but he chose not to.
He wanted to change the system that was destroying the country, he wanted to uplift the life of the common man in Pakistan.
He chose to fight these gangsters, alone.
It was seemingly an impossible & daunting task and everyone mocked him for stubbornly fighting a lost battle
and if you just go back a few years, it seemed like that too.
Nobody perceived a positive change was ever possible, everyone simply shrugged off the thought saying, ye Pakistan hai, "yahan Kuch nahi badalnay wala"... It was all acceptable and normal.
Imran Khan proved his mettle, he stood against the tide and remained unshakeable.
I challenge anyone, from all his critics, from the intelligentsia and his political rivals, from so-called giants like Ch Nisar, Javed Hashmi, Aitzaz Ahsan, or even Shah Mehmood Qureshi,
who have decades of political experience, to make a party 1/4 as strong as PTI or even make a considerable difference in the system.
None will dare to do so because they have always held positions and ministries and that's all they are capable of...
No individual can achieve what Imran has, bearing in mind that Imran was not from a political family. He had no political support and he was only a sportsman...
Look around in the world, you will not find ONE such man who made such a contribution in the political arena...
Legends and stars like Clint Eastwood, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Amitabh, Sunil Dutt, Dharmendra, Govinda, Shatrugan, and Sachin Tendulkar. Ranatunga and countless others entered politics because of their fame and fan followings but where are they today?
Nowhere!
They all decided to join one of the mainstream parties because they couldn't succeed on their own, & none of them made any considerable contribution.
Parvez Musharraf, the most powerful president for 8 yrs could not make an impact, not even at the provincial level
Even the national hero, Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan tried his luck, he launched a party but failed miserably and is nowhere to be seen.
Mind you, all the leaders, from Benazir, Nawaz, Altaf, Asfandyar, and even Musharraf have lived in self-exile when they were not in power.
Imran in his 23rd year of struggle has remained in Pakistan, in opposition, fearlessly against his fiercest rivals... He does not know fear!
It is easy to sit and criticize Imran Khan, but nobody will dare or even care to fight the system...
I know he has a past,
I know he has flaws,
I know he makes mistakes and I know he is far from perfect.
But I also know that he is sinfully honest, very sincere, very patriotic, incorruptible, and not a wily, dodgy character. He is passionately dedicated and he is a visionary.
In short, he is the BEST man for the job.
In a country like ours where corruption is as acceptable as the law, it is nothing short of a blessing to have a leader with such an impeccable track record. Who is selflessly working for the prosperity of the people...
Especially when the people he's trying to help are against him...
I don't think anyone in Pakistan's history has withstood so much slander, abuse, false propaganda, and opposition.
I believe that nobody could
From being a Yahudi agent to an establishment puppet, from a liberal, drug addict modernist to a Taliban Khan & whatnot.
His marriage, his divorce, his pet dog, everything he said or did was criticized. His sisters & even his deceased parents have been subject to verbal abuse.
Had it been anyone else in his place, he would have quit long ago but Imran Khan bore it all, because to him, his cause was bigger than his pride... He remained selflessly and fearlessly resilient.
When Imran Khan had to choose between his marriage (to a woman who still respects him) and Pakistan, he chose Pakistan.
He chose to live away from his children, which he admitted, was the most painful decision of his life.
He gave up a luxurious Royal and very relaxed life, for this ungrateful country and people.
Let's not forget the World Cup he gave to Pakistan.
He gave Pakistan the most talented cricketers before he left.
The likes of Wasim Akram, Waqar Younis, Aquib Javed, Mushtaq Ahmed,
Saqlain Mushtaq, Rashid Latif, Moin Khan, and Inzamam ul Haq, just to name a few.....
He gave Pakistan Shaukat Khanum Memorial Hospital, two world-class cancer hospitals where the poor receive the most expensive and best treatment for free...
He was the only foreigner, Pakistani Chancellor of Bradford University for a good 5 years.
He gave us the Namal University, of an international standard...
And he doesn't draw a salary or benefits from any of the above...
He has so far only given to this country!
Can you name ONE person who has given Pakistan so much...
Nobody comes even close to him!
