Nod of powers that be key element for snap polls, says Imran Khan

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) supremo Imran Khan said on Wednesday the willingness of the “seat of power” was vital for ensuring early elections in the country. Speaking to a select group of journalists at his Zaman Park residence in Lahore, the PTI chief claimed that he was not in contact with the Establishment for now, and also warned the government of reaction if any “political engineering” would be done in the upcoming elections. The deposed premier took a jibe at the ruling Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM), saying the PDM had become a “drawing room” party, adding that they came into power just to get “NRO-2”.
