‘Power-wielders’ must learn to respect people’s choice: PTI

Raoof Hasan says PTI emerged largest party as people roared their approval for Imran Khan to be next premier
Islamabad
Raoof Hasan, the Central Secretary Information of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), held a press conference on Friday alleging blatant rigging in the general elections held yesterday. Hasan claimed that the outcome of the elections had been manipulated overnight, with those initially winning being declared losers and vice versa.
Addressing the media regarding the results of the 2024 general elections, Hasan proudly declared that PTI had emerged as the single-largest political force in the center, Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa (K-P), and Punjab.
He credited the massive voter turnout to the public’s unwavering support for PTI founder Imran Khan to be the next prime minister.
However, the PTI Central Information Secretary warned against any attempts to subvert the people’s decision, stating that such efforts would have dire consequences. He emphasised the need for those in power to respect the choice made by the electorate.
Highlighting the challenges faced by PTI in the past, Hasan recalled the alleged reign of terror and fascism following the toppling of Khan’s government through what he referred to as a ‘regime change conspiracy.’ He claimed that PTI had faced constant oppression, with restrictions on holding meetings and public gatherings.
