Yes and youth has almost 50% vote bank in these elections so if youth is going to support Imran Khan than he has a chance of winning otherwise not

I think the older generation will vote against Imran Khan. From the way I've heard people talk, the younger lot and some of the older people from the elite classes want Imran. Whereas the majority of the older population are still rooting for PPP.

I remember my relatives who are over 50, saying you shouldn't be giving your Zakat to Shaukat Khanum because you don't know what Imran is really doing with the money! I mean seriously? How can anyone make such a nonsensical judgement! People are too stuck in their ways to actually use their brains and vote to usher in change.

Imran's going to steal Zakat? Seriously? Have people lost it. 🤪 He doesn't even care to buy himself new clothes from what I've heard why would he need Zakat if he willingly gives his money away.
Everyone just jumps to personal points instead of focusing on proffesional aspects.
May Allah help guide our older generations. Ameen!

BTW there is another rumour going on that PMLN and PPP will form government...N Sharif is unlikely to win outside Punjab so they'll probably join PPP and form government...In return PPP wants AAZ to be elected president again

And what Teer have all the idiots maared before? 🤪 They've gotten so many chances before yet they failed. You always have to take a chance no matter what.
Khan is hope and I believe in his Naya Pakistan 😎

Btw, not voting is worse than voting for the wrong person.

For some reason when it comes to IK his personal life is more interesting for people to judge instead of the political side. Pakistani people have some crude mentality, full of hypocrisy and double standards!

Pakistanis always vote for the wrong person and cry afterwards 😆 thank god I am not part of this ,even If I was in Pakistan I would never vote

The Jemimah stuff is completely irrelevant, on every single level.

People need to get off their high horses. Islamically he was well within his rights to marry her. Jemimah herself is pro-Pakistan and has done a lot to raise awareness about it's indigenous people and culture across the west.

Whatever mistakes he makes in his personal life (and marrying Jemimah isn't a mistake) he's always frank about them and admits that life is a learning curve and he has stumbled along the way through his youth.

The bottom line is that out of all the candidates Imran is the only one who is willing to put the masses before himself and his family. He's not worried about lining his pockets with gold, he's worried about getting America out of Pakistan, fighting to take down the Taliban and improving the average Pakistani's quality of life.

I think he's the only one that is pushing to introduce tax in Pakistan as well. If he manages to do only that one thing through his entire run, Pakistan will be in a much better situation than it is now. Tax means, free education, medical treatment etc for everyone. Eventually it will also mean the introduction of state benefits for those people that are living below the poverty line.

Seriously he is the only one that is thinking about these small things that will make massive differences to the country in the long run.
