ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan dispelled the impression that the ISI is behind his party’s recent rise in popularity or the success of its political campaign, during a press conference on Saturday.
“I don’t believe in dictation from the military nor does the PTI believe in support from hidden forces,” he emphasised, referring to the ISI and the army.
“We are strong believers in democracy which restrains the military from poking its nose in the civilian government’s affairs,” he said.
“PTI will disassociate Pakistan from the war on terror led by the US and declare war against corruption, which has destroyed our economy like the plague.”
He vowed to halt drone attacks and block NATO supplies and reiterated that his government, if voted into power, would close all US bases and intelligence centres in Pakistan and cancel visas issued to CIA operatives.
He also announced a 100-day plan to make Pakistan a ‘corruption-free state.’
