ISLAMABAD ( Web News )
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Omar Ayub Khan on Monday said that those who delayed the February 8 general elections were guilty of violating Article 6.
During a press conference in Islamabad, Omar Ayub Khan said that a delegation of the International Monetary Fund (IMF) had visited PTI founder Imran Khan last year.
Omar Ayub said that the former premier, in the meeting with IMF, told the delegation that they could sign an agreement for the betterment of Pakistan.
“However, he told the IMF team that the February 8 elections should be held within its time under the law and Constitution,” said the former minister, adding that the “illegal governments” did not abide by the Constitution and violated it. “Those who went ahead with the election were guilty of violating Article 6,” he added.
The PTI leader further said that the Shehbaz Sharif-led government does not have the ability or guts to bring IMF reforms. “We are afraid that the current government will misuse the IMF loan” he added.
Meanwhile Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan has moved the Islamabad High Court (IHC) for a meeting with the party founder.
The applicant made interior secretary, Islamabad chief commissioner and Adiala Jail superintendent parties in the petition.
The applicant prayed that party chairman Gohar Khan, Secretary General Omar Ayub and Secretary Shibli Faraz wanted to meet the founder.
He requested the court to order the Adiala Jail authorities to allow the applicants a meeting with the PTI founder.
