Imran Khan in Turkey on the invitation of Tayyip Erdogan
Chairman of Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan is currently in Turkey as he was invited by the Prime Minister of Turkey, Tayyip Ordogan.
Ordogan is currently one of the most popular Muslim political leaders of the world. Under his leadership, Turkey has now become a force to reckon with in the world and the lives of the ordinary citizens have improved massively since last eight years.
This is a very encouraging sign for the Muslim countries as the political leaders are sharing each other’s vision and helping each other to eradicate the problems of their countries.
It is quite interesting to note that Turkey was a secular country before Ordogan took over as the Prime Minister. However, the Justice Party has changed the face of Turkey and now Islam has a major role to play in the law-making of the country.
On the other side of the coin, Imran is rapidly becoming the most popular political figures of Pakistan. He founded PTI in mid-1990s but his party failed to make an impression on the political scene of the country for a number of years, before the situation
changed drastically last year after massive public processions in Lahore and Karachi, the two major cities of Pakistan.
Ironically, just like Ordogan’s, Imran’s party also means movement for justice. The vision of both the leaders is quite similar as they are the believers of Islamic welfare system.
At the present moment of time, Pakistan is going through a number of problems. The major political parties of the country, Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League (N) have headed a number of governments since last two and a half decades.
Most of the educated people in Pakistan have a consensus that the people of Pakistan must look for a change and should get rid of the tried and tested politicians. There does not seem to any other option of change at the moment apart from the cricketer turned
politician.
It remains to be seen that PTI can convert its popularity into the electoral system or not, which has a lot of flaws in it. However, one thing is for sure that Pakistan is in dire need of an educated and visionary leader.

No doubt pakistan is in critical edge. Traditional political system has destroyed the governing system and corruption is at its peak. Anarchy is seen in mega city like karachi. People of Pakistan must decide now whether to be crushed by the current corrupted political parties or choose a fresh and honest leadership.
