Speaking to Baaghi TV‘s senior analyst and anchorperson, Yasmeen Aftab Ali of “Yasmeen Ki Baithak“, the former Federal Minister Shafqat Mehmood said that the elections should be held within sixty-nine days once the assembly ends or the term is concluded, we should not be swayed by this.
If they deviate from the constitution, then there will be no rule of law. Unfortunately, the Punjab Assembly was dissolved and now many people of Tehreek-e-Insaaf are saying that the assembly should not have been dissolved, there were no elections. According to the constitution and the law, elections should be held in October or November, then the party will prepare. Now the situation is in front of everyone, there are many problems. We prepared with reference to the Punjab Assembly, although a lot of people fought in it. Now they will give tickets to others who will stay with the party, they will get tickets, and the rest will see. The election campaign will not have to do much because of social media.

In response to a question regarding Tehreek-e-Insaaf’s vote bank due to leaving the party, Shafqat Mahmood said that it is wrong to say that it does not matter because it does. People have their own vote bank. It makes a difference, those who contest elections know how to organize elections. The main thing of a political party is its vote bank among the people. The vote bank is established till the last survey. Those who go will be replaced by others. If someone goes, new people will come. In the last certified survey, the popularity of Tehreek-e-Insaaf is established. After the events of May 9, there will be some differences in the vote bank. Those giving wrong advice are also leaving.
In response to a question, Shafqat Mahmood said look at Jahangir Tareen, he could not lead his son to victory despite all his efforts. Imran Ismail won an election on a PTI ticket. Fawad Chaudhary and Aamir Kayani also, none of those who met Tareen have a vote bank. The vote of the party has increased due to media, social media. As a two-time MNA, I did not have the experience of elections the first time, but the second time there was a trend.

In response to a question from Yasmeen Aftab Ali regarding the lobbying firm for the improvement of relations with America, Shafqat Mahmood said that I am not aware of hiring a firm for the improvement of relations with America. If someone has done something different, it can happen. At one time, they used to say that it is necessary to have three A’s to come to power. Allah, America, and the Army, when the same question was asked again, Shafqat Mahmood expressed his ignorance about hiring a lobbying firm and said that those who supported PTI in America did not know if PTI did anything. Benazir sent me to America for lobbying when I was in PPP (Pakistan People’s Party). I was a senator and I went. These things have happened in the history of our country. There is hardly any party that has not done international lobbying, the US has a great influence on the IMF and the World Bank.
During his appearance on Baaghi TV‘s “Yasmeen Ki Baithak“, in response to another question, Tehreek-e-Insaaf leader Shafqat Mehmood said that it is very important to have a national dialogue for the survival of the country in politics, I believe in it. Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and Miftah Ismail also mentioned it. I also spoke about the national dialogue in 2009. Such are the problems of our country, we are not getting justice from the courts. I held many positions, I was a minister. People have occupied the state lands, justice is necessary if this country is to be fixed. At present, there is a deadlock. If the Supreme Court gives an order and the government does not comply, then it is also a deadlock. If we have to look towards the future, we have to solve the economic problems. Middle-class people think about whether to buy fruit or mutton. It is our misfortune. Those nations are very unfortunate that are not allowed to make the right decisions. If they do not accept the decision of the Supreme Court, then the system will not work. Today, some people do not like the decisions that were not coming to us yesterday. No one has the right to object to the decision. If it is not according to the law, then you can comment, but it will have to be implemented. The Supreme Court looks after internal matters itself. If the parliament starts interfering or managing, then what is to happen?

In response to another question, Shafqat Mahmood said that Parliament had several opportunities – implemented the Eighteenth Amendment, but did not tamper with 62, 63. There are many things that I do not like, but we did not meddle with anything. Pakistan’s problems have become so great that not only the political parties but also the ruling institutions will have to sit down. Do not get up until things are settled. Our population has increased to 25 million, but two million children are out of school, what will happen to them? We have water problems that there will not be enough water, climate change, and so many problems. I can talk about the problems of education for an hour but the question is who will solve it? When there was Corona, we activated the inter-provincial ministerial conference and all the provinces took joint decisions regarding school examinations. It set an example that we can make decisions together. To combat poverty, what will happen if the poor run over the politicians? It is necessary that there should be a national dialogue to solve all the problems.
