LAHORE (National Times) – Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan said on Thursday allowing the incumbent government to commit more wrongdoing would be a ‘stupid idea’.

The members of the PTI’s parliamentary committee called on the deposed premier to discuss the issue of establishment of Punjab caretaker government. Senior leader Fawad Chaudhry was also present. The PTI discussed the names of Ahmed Nawaz Sukhera, Naveed Cheema and Naseer Khan and Mr Khan agreed to send two names to the parliamentary committee after final consultation.

Speaking on this occasion, Mr Khan recalled that the country could not afford to delay the elections, adding that endangering the transparency of the elections was a very sensitive issue which was tantamount to enmity against the nation. He said transparent elections were the most serious matter and need of the hour.

As for the role of the caretaker government, Mr Khan stated that those with the best reputation and ability were best suited for the job. “The PTI is nominating personalities with the best reputation and ability,” he added.
