You give them too much credit.
If they had any sense they would have let IK continue ruling. IK had almost bankrupted Pakistan. IK had managed to piss off US & China ; Saudia Arabia & Iran at the very same time. This requires a special set of skills!! IK should have been allowed to continue for a year more, he would have ran Pak into the ground and finished his political career.
Even now I think his political career is actually finished. Over a period of time SMQ would rise to power in PTI and push IK aside.
No, I do not agree with you....You should draw a parallel between IK with our Arvind Kejriwal. So I am sure IK will come back with a full majority if Pakistan elections are not influenced by their army...
But from an Indian perspective, I feel a stable and good civilian leader in Pakistan has the potential to rewrite positive relations between India and Pakistan...At least, I hope IK has learned his lesson and will follow an independent path for the prosperity of Pakistan and improve its ties with India...
