With the no-trust motion looming on the horizon for Pakistan PM Imran Khan, on Friday, in an address to the nation, praised India.
Terming his neighbour as “khuddar quam” (self-respecting people), he stated that despite both nations getting independence at the same time, no superpower can dictate terms to India, while “Pakistan gets used as a tissue paper and thrown away.”
Replying to this changed stance on India, his former wife and a critic of the PM, Reham Khan took to Twitter to say that Imran Khan has suddenly decided to campaign for India realising that he would not win again.
This is not the first time Imran Khan has praised India. His stance has changed ever since the political crisis began in Pakistan.
Taking to Twitter, PML-N leader Maryam Nawaz Sharif said that if the PM liked India so much, he should shift there.
The leader also reminded him that Atal Bihari Vajpayee lost by one vote and "did not take the country, constitution and nation hostage."
Imran Khan will be facing a no-trust motion shortly as the Pakistan Supreme Court termed the dissolution of the Assembly unconstitutional. In his address to the nation, a day prior to the vote, PM Khan appealed to citizens to protest peacefully against the "foreign hand" behind the conspiracy.
