It was first ever experince in the political history of Pakistan so it was not expeceted to be free from flaws. But the positive side that overwiegh all the negativities is that Imran Khan has set an example of intorducing democracy with in the political parties. PTI is now the only party in Pakistan where party high officials are not nominated but elcted ones.

This is not to say that electoral process was completely fair. There are reports of grave irregualirties, trading of votes etc but this should be overlooked for the reason mentined at the outset.

I may not endorse many policies of IK, especially accomodating the old faces due to electoral considerations but during last few days he has taken few bold steps befitting of a national leader. He catagorically slamed Lashkar-e-Jhangvi and went to Quetta to show solidarity with Hazara brethren. This could not be done by the PML-N due to petty political interests.

I wish Khan's this step may start a new era of democratic politics in Pakistan where any one who has capabilty may rise to prominence. This will consign the traditional family politics to dustbin of history.

This is really a good job.Intra party elections are key to functional democracy non extent in third world.Pakistan with two others countries Bangladesh and India,is polluted with dynastic politics which is an obstacle in the way of emergence of true leadership to national horizons.A glimpse of hope can be visibly seen in national politics as a party has put its concerted effort,though with some loopholes,to meet public aspiration...

Yes.....! I agree with you. Specially when a tailor of kohat was elected as president, that moment ensured every one that Imran khan will not do the family politics.
Well done Imran Khan. May ALLAH help you.

Indeed it is a great achievement despite of irregularities. Bt this may prove futile effort as pti might not get any advantage from this exercise.

Despite having difference of opinion on certain issues with PTI , I can not resist admiring this brave and courageous step. And the better thing about it was that it was not mere a formality or a cosmetic activity , rather it was election in its spirit. At different places , the contest was very interesting . And secondly , it was at all levels, from grass root to higher level. And I have seen that it has infused a new spirit in the workers of PTI and they stand at a higher level of confidence now. One can hope that this positive novelty in Pakistani politics would take the form of a good tradition and other parties would also follow suit. I have seen an overwhelming support for this tradition .
Another thing I witnessed was that the turn out of these elections remained very high . This is a very positive sigh both for country as well as for PTI. For country in the sense that more and more people seem interested in electoral process and they are willing to demonstrate their opinion in the form of vote and they see change possible through vote . Moreover , it also shows their confidence in the system. One another thing is that voters had confidence in election process 's fair and free nature , so they came in good number. One may hope that the turn out would be good in general elections as well as arrangements for free and fare elections seem quite bright now.

For PTI it is very positive sign as it was considered that the voter of PTI is only active on media specially on social media and they actually do not come to cast their vote rather stay at their drawing rooms. These elections have dispelled this notion. The passion and participation of the PTI voters in these elections was worth seeing.
and this remains the fact that political activities play a substantial role in keeping the parties alive . And this activity through out the country gave an impetus to PTI 's worker's passion . How fortunate it would be of other parties also start this process and open up the avenues for talented people to come the front .

Imran khan has truly been inspirational especially after this gigantic step of Intra-Party Elections.This is a perfect example for other parties too.
I think now time has changed and people will really vote for the policies and their implementation instead of emotional and racial affiliations because growth of Pakistan as whole is more important than growth of one particular ethnicity.In my modest opinion Imran khan for now looks the guy to go for in coming elections.


Regards

dynastic politics should be vanished now from our country.We are living in "democratic dictatorship" where the decedents of land lards are ruling us.This is something more stupid that few rich families are treating the 18 kror people are their personal property which is being transferred from one generation to another.This selection should also be based upon merit.Intra party election is the first step towards it

Another positive step by PTI -Only those candidates who have been paying income tax for last three years can apply for PTI's ticket for upcoming General Elections.(Clause09). It has been made manadatory for the applicants to declare their assets and that of their close reletives in the application form.(Clause18).

he's following all required clauses in nominating his candidates.. well well.. what do u think, other parties will oppose these clauses..?? every party will have to follow all required rules of election commission, then only they'll be eligible..

anyways, can someone tell.. who's IK at present..?? well he's nothing.. no previous record.. tomorrow when his party comes to power and when day after tomorrow next new elections will be coming, then i want to see whether he conducts intra party elections or he wants to go with his existing parliamentarians..?!

it's all game of power.. today it seems good drama but in future, he'll never like to side his winning parliamentarians.. today that tailor is just tailor but when he will become parliamentarian, IK will never want anybody else coming on his place..

when i see other parties.. Khursheed shah from People's party was wapda's meter reader before he became parliamentarian.. but today people's party can't afford to keep him aside and bring other meter reader as its nominee.. there are chances new candidate may loose so old one is better..

khan's tradition is good but we don't need traditions.. we need sincere people to rule us.. guys who're fighting for seats, how much selflessness do u expect from them..

well anyway.. lets try khan saab also because we're left with no other choice..

Khan sb is living in fool's paradise. Its pakistan; intraprty elections,policy papers.youth representation have no impact. Only thing which matters is induction of electables. He is nt in u.s.a where people are impressed by ur vision nd policies. Here people like zrdari nd nawaz cant b defeated bcoz they know how to do power politics.
