Imran`s vision

2017-12-19
IMRAN Khan`s rising popularity under the existingpoliticalsituationisforallto see.

In 1974, when I landed in Scotland, my late English professor in our very first meeting said, `So you are from Pakistan, are you? Your Imran Khan is wonderful.` Of course, he said it in the context of cricket, but how true he was.

I am not a PTI supporter but an ordinary man who observes the changing political scenario. Imran`s recent speech at a Fata youth gathering showed his potential as a worthy and deserving future prime minister.

From his speech, any unbiased individual could deduce that he is aware that our governments are borrowing at a mega scale and putting ordinary people under heavy debt. This heavy borrowing brings us no real joy when we realise that it has to be returned with mounting interest.

He still faces many hurdles and needs to tread the political minefield carefully. The biggestchallenge hefacesis thathe hasno experience in government.
