From that standpoint, how is it relevant whether the 2024 elections was rigged or not, and whether Imran Khan is in jail or free ? Massive poverty, massive unemployment, massive malnutrition, and massive lack of proper healthcare and good education for the Pakistani masses would have remained as before. In fact the Pakistan economy got worse under Imran Khan’s premiership and prices of food and other essential commodities skyrocketed. So how does it matter to him whether there is army rule or civilian rule in Pakistan, or whether Imran Khan is free or not ? And when there is defacto army rule in Pakistan ( as there is presently ) is it being abolished or reduced ?
