In a recent media briefing, Barrister Gohar Khan from Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has raised concerns over the potential ramifications for the International Monetary Fund (IMF) programme if poll results do not align with Form 45s.
Khan emphasized the critical need for transparent and accurate electoral outcomes, stating that any deviation from this standard could jeopardize Pakistan’s IMF programme. He highlighted the importance of avoiding further political instability and urged for the announcement of impartial and free poll results to safeguard the nation’s stability.
The statement comes amidst growing tensions surrounding the credibility of electoral processes in Pakistan. Khan’s remarks underscore the significance of upholding democratic principles and ensuring fair elections to maintain international trust and support, particularly concerning economic assistance programs such as the IMF initiative.
As the country braces for upcoming elections, Khan’s warning serves as a reminder of the pivotal role that transparent electoral procedures play in safeguarding Pakistan’s economic interests and international reputation.
