Dr Amir Liaqat has to prove, Neither he nor Imran Khan is wrong

ISLAMABAD: Imran Khan addressed a joint press conference today in Karachi with Dr Liaquat and welcomed him to the party.

Many have termed it a controversial decision but it is not.

Dr Amir Liaqat has to prove it that Imran Khan was not wrong. He himself has to honour his words.

Dr Liaquat was formerly associated with Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQMP) and announced to quit the party as well as politics last year following a brief detention by Pakistan Rangers over anti-Pakistan tirade of party founder.

Interior minister Ahsan Iqbal reacted in his tweet after Dr Liaquat pledged loyalty to Imran Khan, that he had offered the same to Nawaz Sharif earlier.

Interior minister Ahsan Iqbal stated that he was part of the meeting during which Dr Aamir Liaquat declared Nawaz Sharif true leader of Pakistan.

Interior minister’s statement came over an hour after Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan formally welcomed Dr Liaquat to PTI in a joint press conference in Karachi today.

“For record sake: I was present in a meeting in which Dr Amir Liaqat met Mr Nawaz Sharif in Karachi and requested him to give time for a public meeting saying that NS was a true leader of Pakistan and its only hope,” Ahsan said.

He asserted in his tweet that Dr Liaquat had requested Nawaz Sharif to spare some time for a public meeting.
