Highlighting the challenges Pakistan faces, Ali Mohammad Khan pointed out that political instability poses a greater threat to the country than terrorism. “The real issue is political uncertainty. When there is political stability, the economy naturally improves,” he added.
According to Ali Mohammad Khan, the former prime minister envisions a Pakistan where institutions function within their mandated roles, free from political influence, while the political system operates transparently and efficiently. He stressed that a balanced relationship between civilian authorities and the military is essential for national progress and governance.
He further urged political parties to focus on development, economic reform, and public welfare rather than institutional confrontation. “A strong political system strengthens democracy and the nation. Political stability is the key to addressing economic challenges,” he remarked.
During the program, Ali Mohammad Khan also touched upon the impact of political turmoil on national security. He explained that the country’s recurring political crises divert attention and resources away from developmental priorities, affecting sectors ranging from education to healthcare.
In conclusion, the PTI leader reiterated that Imran Khan’s vision is not about confrontation with any state institution, but about ensuring that governance remains accountable, democratic, and focused on the welfare of the people. He encouraged dialogue among political stakeholders to achieve consensus on key national issues, stating that the country’s progress depends on unity and responsible leadership.
