Imran Khan’s and PTI’s march to Islamabad could potentially undo all the progress Pakistan has made with the peaceful transition of power from one democratically elected government to the next in 2013. This was the first time in Pakistan’s history that this has happened. In no small part, Imran Khan’s efforts are what made that election possible. He was able to energize the people of Pakistan by telling them that they could create a new Pakistan for themselves. Now, Khan is demanding that the Sharif government resign in light of election fraud and corruption claims. Instead of building on the progress the country made in 2013, Khan’s demands could take the country backwards. Read my open letter to Imran Khan, published on August 20th by the South Asia Monitor.
Imran, Please Don’t Destroy All the Good Work!
