Imran Khan compares his struggle with that of Bangabandhu


Imran Khan, a former prime minister of Pakistan and chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) party, has compared his ‘struggle for real freedom’ with that of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the architect of independent Bangladesh.

In an address at a long march in the Gujranwala area of Pakistan on Tuesday, the PTI chairman also reminded that Awami League’s legitimate electoral mandate to rule Pakistan was denied before the independence of Bangladesh, according to Dawn.

Imran Khan’s party started its long march on Friday and the march still had not moved beyond Gujranwala, falling way behind its schedule, on its fifth day.

“A shrewd politician [ZA Bhutto], in his greed for power, set the armed forces against the then largest party [Awami League], which had won elections,” he said.

Comparing the PTI with Awami League, Imran Khan said his party was the “largest and sole federal party” and yet he was denied fresh elections by the Pakistan government.

“Everyone knows Mujibur Rahman and his party won the general elections in 1970. Instead of handing over power, a clever politician set Awami League and the army on a collision course... at present, Nawaz Sharif and Asif Zardari are playing a similar role as they are trying to conspire with the establishment to block the PTI’s journey back to power,” the former premier alleged.

Speaking at the rally, Imran Khan also challenged former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to an electoral contest. “Nawaz Sharif I challenge you: when you come back, I will beat you in your constituency!” he thundered.

You might be suprised to learn this is a very common sentiment in Pakistan, that Mujib should have been declared the winner and allowed to form a government. This sentiment is held across the board, I've heard it many times, not just on TV but also amongst the people.
You guys only get to see a certain segment of Pakistani population on pdf.

But IK won the last elections and did form his coalition government. The only reason he is now not PM is because his coalition fell apart. He can easily win the next elections and form an even stronger government that is ideally not a coalition.

Therefore, his comparison is not really valid, except for the part about a collision course with the Army. That is indeed unfortunate.

that sentiment wasn't widespread at the time due to control of info and other agencies
in fact the sentiment at the time was pak was winning the war as well (until the very last moment of course)
who or why this disinfo/misinfo was caused then and now is anyone's guess

Sir gg, at that time all information was state controlled, private ownership of media and social media are very recent occurrences.
Misinformation is done by everyone to spread their message or hide something, it has always happened, still happens and will always happen, its nothing unusual.

Anyway, what you are describing is a situation after the war started. What is being discussed here are the elections, not the war period.

The main thing is how we learn to reconcile with our past, so we can have a better future.

So that means he will meet indians behind closed doors?
One day he is giving examples of Bhutto.. the other day this.. frankly I don't believe this news

Yes, your imagination is very right. Mujib met Indian agents when he was interned in the Layalpur jail for 9 months in 1971.

How long guys like you will be slandering Mujib instead of coming to Dhaka to apologize to our Nata and Kaley Bangali who struggled more than other nationalities forming present Pakistan?
