Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf unveils manifesto ahead of elections

Barrister Gohar Khan of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf unveiled the party’s election platform on Sunday, pledging social and constitutional improvements, with less than two weeks till the general elections on February 8th.

Claiming that officials were preventing party-backed candidates from running for office, the PTI released the manifesto during national election campaigns.

Gohar said that the PTI’s manifesto was called “Shandaar Pakistan, Shandaar Mustaqbil aur Kharaab Maazi sey chutkara” during a news conference in Islamabad. According to Dawn, he claimed that the party leaders who were behind the paper couldn’t make it to the press conference out of concern that they would be arrested.

According to local media reports, the PTI leader promised to establish a truth and reconciliation commission in order to redress the injustices that the average man must endure when discussing the manifesto.

Gohar promised to raise the tax bracket and alter the tax system in his remarks about the nation’s economy. He added that farmers will get a subsidy to help them get back on their feet.

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Nawaz Sharif delivered the party’s election manifesto on Saturday, one day before the polls.

Speaking at a party in Lahore, Nawaz Sharif declared that if the PML-N is elected to power, its platform will be “fully implemented.” Nawaz Sharif hoped that the manifesto would be read by people.

Nawaz Sharif declared that the manifesto’s most significant component was Pakistan’s economy. Despite his removal as Pakistan’s prime minister in 2017 and his “political vendettas” against the PML-N, he saw it as a “strange coincidence” that his Sharif claimed he wasn’t “in the mood to complain” or meant to “express his grievances”.
