Was Aleem Khan's aim to become the CM of Punjab?
Transcript
00:00 But one impression was that in Buzdar and Ali Imran Khan, there is a problem of CM-ship competition.
00:08 Because I remember that you were also in frontrunners for the CM seat at that time.
00:13 Can this be the reason?
00:16 Yes, whatever the reason is, if Imran Khan was also in politics, he also had an aim.
00:23 Why was Imran Khan saying politics?
00:25 He was not saying it to run the Shaukat Khan.
00:27 He was saying it to become the Prime Minister.
00:29 Whoever is in politics, wants to become a consular, a minister, an MPA, an MNA.
00:36 That is why they are in politics.
00:38 If they become MNA, then you cannot accuse anyone that they wanted to become MNA, that is why they were with Imran Khan.
00:46 So Imran Khan wanted to become the Prime Minister, but if Ali Imran Khan wanted to become the CM,
00:52 or he wanted to become the minister, or he wanted to become the speaker.
00:56 So what is wrong in this?
00:59 Did Ali Imran Khan wanted to become the CM?
01:01 Yes, he wanted to become the CM.
01:03 And did he start on this?
01:05 I think I had a merit because all the seniors who were in the party,
01:09 like Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Asad Umar, or Jahangir Khan Taneen,
01:15 none of them were elected as provincial assembly members.
01:21 So according to that seniority, or according to the services that were provided to the party,
01:26 or according to the work that was done for the party, I had a merit.
01:30 Even if I didn't have a merit, then it's okay.
01:33 A 22 year old PTI worker, a PTI worker, a PTI Jiala,
01:39 a PTI person who had supported Imran Khan for 20 years, he should have been appointed.
01:45 The Buzdar Sahib who was appointed, what was his merit?
01:49 He was carrying Shahbaz Sharif's bag a month ago.
01:53 If you have seen the picture, he is coming out of DG Khan airport,
01:57 and Shahbaz Sahib is going ahead, and our friend Aleem Shah is with him.
02:02 And Buzdar Sahib is carrying his bag.
02:05 Now if a person who was carrying Shahbaz Sahib's bag a month ago,
02:09 how did he become the candidate for PTI?
02:13 Fair enough.
02:14 Now let's come to the era of the Prime Minister.
02:16 It was said that Nawaz Sharif was made incapable of making Bani-e-PTI the PM.
02:22 And at this time, your statement made the entire judiciary a part of political engineering.
02:28 So can we say that at this time, Bani-e-PTI was made incapable of making Nawaz Sharif the PM?
02:36 I am not saying this, but I am saying that the role in this was the same as General Faiz's role at that time.
02:46 And he was pivotal in all this work.
02:50 And whether I went in or came out, or which position Imran Khan Sahib had to go to,
02:57 General Faiz was involved in all this.
02:59 And without General Sahib's consent, all these decisions were not being made.
03:05 General Faiz played a very important role in Imran Khan Sahib's arrival.
03:08 And with this, who all did he bring with him?
03:12 Obviously, the person in charge of the entire orchestra was General Faiz.
03:20 And General Faiz had a goal, he wanted to become the Army Chief.
03:25 And that was possible with Imran Khan.
03:27 He wanted to scratch his back, he wanted to scratch his back.
03:30 Was there such a commitment between Imran Khan and General Faiz?
03:33 He said, "Give me 5 years first, I will give you 5 years.
03:36 After 3 years, you give me the extension."
03:39 So for 10 years, Imran Khan was sitting for 1 year, and for 6 years, he was sitting for 1 year.
03:44 He just had to wait for the election to happen, and we would start our rounds.
03:51 So this was his commitment.
03:53 Were you also part of any such conversation?
03:56 I cannot tell you the exact date, but I was sitting with Imran Khan at 3.45pm.
04:03 I think I had an important role in PTI.
04:08 And in PTI, I was very close to Imran Khan.
04:17 And what was happening there, from which platform, how was it being met, where was it being met?
04:24 Which car did he use to go to, which car did he use to come, whose house did he go to?
04:28 Whose house was used? I know all of this.
04:31 But what I am telling you is that in all of this, the plan that was out,
04:39 was that you come for 6 years, and for 5 years, you bring me, and next time I will come for 5 years.
04:47 So this was a commitment between us.
04:49 Right. Now, looking at the situation at the moment, Mr. Ali Imran Khan,
04:54 do you see any chance of Pakistan's return to justice?
04:57 Because, Mr. Babar Awan, I will play that clip, in fact, what did Mr. Babar Awan say in our program?
05:02 As soon as the election campaign starts, every seat in Pakistan will be hopeful for us.
05:08 And in all the provinces, we will have hope that Pakistan's biggest political power,
05:13 will run the biggest successful movement, because the movement is not run by a person, but by people.
05:18 You heard Mr. Babar Awan's statement in my program, he said that we have all the candidates,
05:22 they are ready for the elections.
05:24 Who has stopped them? Absolutely. PTA has the right, they should fight the elections,
05:29 and they should put their candidates.
05:31 And the same kind of preparation is done by IPP, because IPP has candidates.
05:34 Look, the candidates we have, those who have joined us so far, those candidates are present.
05:40 And that process, which is from today to Election Day, there are many circles in it,
05:45 in which one candidate is applying for one party, and the other one is also applying for that party.
05:50 When one of them gets the ticket, the other one is looking for another party.
05:56 Now we have many people, who are looking for us, and some are looking for another party.
06:01 So when they both settle on each other, who wants to come with us, who wants to go with another party,
06:07 I think many people will not join you in the coming days in the parties.
