After Imran Khan, who do you think will become the next of Prime Minister of Pakistan? Will they be better or worse?
Well, this is a a question which is asked a lot and almost always it is answered based on one's personal liking and political/party affiliations. While answering this we usually forget how sensitive and important this actually is and how it will determine the future of Pakistan and politics in Pakistan as well.
For me, and this is a personal opinion but based on careful study of current situation and our previous trends, the answer to this is a bit complicated than naming a name. However, it is not something that will bother us in 2023. Personally i think that 2023 elections will be won by PTI once again. The only thing that remains to be seen is how strongly they perform in 2023 elections. If PTI manage to deliver on public sector and infrastructure development in their last two years and are able to stabilize the economy they will find themselves in a position/government stronger than the current one. If they fail to do that, they will still win as there are surely little reforms being introduced and gains being made that will ensure a victory but then it might not be a very strong government. Another important thing will with campaign and voter persuasion. PTI will need to come out with fact based numbers. What was the debt when they took over, how much more they borrowed, what have the returned, where do we stand inflation wise, explain why some indicators have gone worse, explain why others are doing better. Educate the people and make it look like you and your decision are accessible to the public. That will help do better in elections. So in short, the "Who will be next prime minister after Imran Khan" is not a thing that will bother us in 2023. It will go to 2028!!
For me, PTI and Imran Khan were never the end goal or the destiny of Pakistan. It was ALWAYS the first step towards that destiny. This was the step that would cleanse the rotten political system of the country and set us on the right path. Now while people have mentioned names like
Hammad Azhar or
Murad Saeed or
Asad Umer, all of whom i admire (and there is Shehryar Afridi, Sania Nishtar, Yasmin Rashid) i am not sure if post 2028 Pakistan will need PTI. I think around that time we can do a lot better. I hope a new PTI emerges by that time which will challenge the mistake of Imran Khan and PTI, which will offer better alternatives and options. That is when we will take that next step towards a better future.
As for those who are saying Maryam or her son or Bilawal etc, i feel sorry for you people. That ship and sailed inshallah. INSHALLAH Pakistan wont be subjected to dynastic tyrant rulers anymore. Inshallah.
