ISLAMABAD: Terming the Long march of Dr Tahir ul Qadri as unconstitutional, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said he wanted a change through force of ballot.
Addressing a press conference here, he said that the upcoming elections would bring a revolutionary change in the county and the practical demonstration could be witnessed in the recent long march led by Dr. Tahir-ul- Qadri.
He said the demands of the Tehrik Minhaj-ul-Quran (TMQ) were similar to those of the PTI; however, the approach to get the issues resolved was different as the TMQ opted to stage a long march for bringing change.
Responding to a question, he did not rule out the possibility of election alliance with Dr Tahir ul Qadri's Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) adding however that it was yet to be decided by the PAT whether or not it would take part in elections.
He said the long march of Tehreek-e-Minhajul Quran was the first step towards a true change through ballot and general elections would prove that a major change is coming in the country.
"Since the PTI has gathered a huge following among the public, the other forces have joined hands to keep status quo intact. But now the people of Pakistan will foil all conspiracies being hatched against them," he maintained.
PTI would prefer to go for the next polls alone rather to making alliance with any government party, Imran Khan said.
He said that a strong election commission and impartial caretaker prime minister must to hold free, fair and transparent elections.
