Imran khan the revolutionist Vs Imran Khan the Politician



So who will you vote for, Imran khan who is an inquilabi or Imran khan who is a politician. Ofcource my vote will always be for a revolutionary Imran khan. One who can change the system, people, faces, attitudes and fate of the

nation. Once upon a time such an Imran khan did exist. He was not much appreciated though. His supporters were few and his voters were fewer. People often accussed him of zero electoral power, but allegations did not dent

his passion for revolution. He used to speak on topics, on which other people were afraid to talk about. He was a leftist, a man who can confront even the biggest oppositions. His political decision were always questionabale and bored little fruit. Either it was his decision to support Musharaf, his decision to join APDM or his decision to boycott the 2008 elections, they were all emotional rather than political decisions.
Then came 2011, the year of change. An year in which even the most arrogant and merciless dictators were over thrown. Either its the revolution in Tunisia or the one in Libya. All of these revolutions brought change in the status

Quo, and turn a whole nation into a revolutionist, fearless and passionate. The revolution was in the air, throughout 2011. Unfortunately, 2011 is the year when i saw the last of my inqalabi Imran khan. He was lost. Somewhere

beyond my our sights. Instead a new Imran khan was seen. A very political Imran khan. Once who is willing to sit with horse traders and tried, tested and dumped politicians. One who was doing everything one need to survive in this

rubbish political system. This political Imran khan wants me to vote for him in the name of the Inqalabi Imran Khan. My Once Inqalabi Imran Khan. This politician Imran Khan is now holding mass rallies. Waving slogans of Inquilab.

In his rallies i can see him sitting with Kasuris, Legharis, Tareens, and almost half of those people who were once a part of dreaded Q-League. An inqalabi Imran Khan could never sit with these power hungry and corrupt politicians.

My Inqalabi Imran khan never compromised. He struggled for 15 years but did not shooke hands with these dirty people. People with corrupt characters, personal goals, dirty past and filthy motives can never bring a revolution that

can change the life of a common man. Imran khan the revolutionist had some awesome goals. Goals that were dreams. He wanted

1. Every Politician to declare his/her assets.
2. Ask politicians to bring their money back to Pakistan
3. Land Reforms.
4. Free Foreign Policy
5. Free education and Medical Facility
6. Accountability across the board.


All these points led us to believe in him, saw him as an agent of change, saw him as our savior. But were we dreaming. Were we not aware that the political system is so strong that it can turn people like IK into a politicians. I will

vote for IK if

1. Every one including Khurshid Kasuri (Businessman), Legari Brother (Biggest Lan Owners in South Punjab), Jhangir Tareen (Sugar Mill Tycoon), Sikander Bosan(Sugar Mill Tycoon. Land Owner), Shah Mehmood Qureshi and

Azam Sawati will declare their assets.
2. Politicians like Azam Sawati (Richest Politician in the parliament) who have declare that their assets and business are abroad, will bring their assets to Pakistan.
3 People like Leghari Brothers and Shahs Mehmood Qureshi who are the biggest wadairas (Land Owners) in south Punjab will start Land Reforms from their own lands.
4. Ensure us that in the presence of 3 former Foreign Ministers who were all Pro-American (War on terror starts when Kasuri was FM, Qureshi was the FM for 3 Years and 750 Drone Attacks were carried out in his tenure), he can

device a free foreign policy. Can he make those foreign ministers condemn the American Drone Attacks.
5. Can he declare that his party member (Khurshid Kasuri Owner of Beaconhouse and Educators) will provide education to poor student at 150 Rs per month at his schools.
6. Azam Sawati on 23rd December accuse Asif Ahmed Ali of corruption of 50 Crore. Will IK start accountability. Or can he even make AAA clarify his position.


All this is easier said than done. All these people are potential seat. Potential steps to Prime Ministership. My question to IK is, are you politically clever enough to deal with these lotas. Who can guarantee that these men will not force you to make compromises and later make you call these decisions as political decision. Dear Imran Khan this is not a team of 11 men who will play as you order for if they dont, they wil not survive, and these people are not technocrats who you have hired on attractive salaries to run SKH. These are political Jackal. They will want you to fail. And remember if you fail IK, the whole nation will fail. That is why i need my revolutionist IK back.

Imran a catalyst of change or a Tool to Resist a Change


The rise of imran khan as a politician is astonishing. Last 15 weeks of his political career are more rewarding than his last 15 years. But one asks a question. Does the astonishing number of people who are chanting his slogans

are their because of his political Genius or the lack of it in other political parties? Th fact is, people especially the youth who are more politically aware then the previous generation are fed up of the incompetent and corrupt

politicians and leaders. They want change. They want change in the governance, faces, and especially the political system.
One cannot deny the fact that the toppling of dictatorship regime in middle east countries have motivated a large portion of our youth. The campaigns to topple those government have a very significant fact. There was no leader. And this is a fact which defy many rules of revolution. In the past revolutions needed leaders. Leaders like Mao, Lenin, Hitler, Jinnah, Gandhi and Khomeini. These leaders were motivator, organizer and more importantly planners. Recent events in the middle east have shown that revolution can be brought without the leader. And all this was possible through social media. Internet has definitely changed the way things were done in the past. And now everyone who takes part in a revolution can be a leader. He can talk to people, motivate them, plan events and at the same time remain hidden from the opposition. Now the forces which resist change have to deal with million of leaders.

So what the significance of all this in Pakistan context. One theory is, that the wave of change which has arose from the middle east can hit Pakistan can at any moment, the establishment here do not want this to happen. Until now this establishment was successful in dealing with any person who could be a potential leader or a catalyst of change. This tactic could bear no more fruit. They fear a leader-less revolution like those happening in middle east.

So they needed a plan to avert all this. As a plan they present a fake change. Change that will look like a change but in reality its the same old system. They needed a scapegoat. They set their sights on Imran Khan. Imran Khan was a clean politician. Hero to the youth. But he was struggling in politics. So a genius plan was devised. Imran was push forward with a team of political orphans. These orphans will make sure that IK will remain in his limits. Imran khan is just the face. The core and the think tank consist of same old pro-establishment politicians. Qureshi, Tareen, Kasuri, Bosan, AAA, Ghulam Sarwar, Legharis and many more to come. And when people start questioning his team, Javed Hashmi made an appearence. Imran Khan is the last dose of Adrenalin pushed into this dying system. He is a scapegoat. Whose biggest flaw is his urge to make a change. A sheep who has teamed up with wolves in sheep clothes to save his her. Will he succeed or not. He will succeed. His rise has all the ingredients for a win. A leader who is already a hero, an experienced team, a tap on the back from king makers and most importantly the urge of the people to change.
The bigger question is will he succeed in bringing the change. And this question has a big question mark. His team is not credible. Personality clashes has always been a stigma on Imran's otherwise illustrious Man-management career. He talks a lot, but has no solid plan. He is not as cunning as Zardari or as lucky as Nawaz Sharif. So his chances are not very bright on the paper. But he need to succeed. Because he is the last ray of hope before it will all come down on our heads. He is the last bit of candle before everything gets dark
