Pakistan’s ousted prime minister, Imran Khan says the people of Pakistan believe even a poor democracy would be better than a military government.

He spoke with ABC’s India Now! Host Marc Fennell as he continues to rally grassroots support to demand new elections.

Prime Minister Imran Khan on Monday paying tribute to Pakistan’s national poet Dr Allama Muhammad Iqbal on his 143rd birth anniversary said Iqbal’s thoughts continue to be a source of inspiration and guidance.

PM Imran in his tweet shared an article of Dr Ali Shariati, renowned Iranian revolutionary and sociologist, and wrote that Iqbal’s thoughts continue to be a source of inspiration and guidance.

“He is a great mystic, with a pure spirit, delivered of materiality and, at the same time, a man who respects and honours science, technological progress, and the advancement of human reason in our age,” the PM quoted Dr Shariati.

Imran Khan’s comments come days after a US-brokered deal between UAE and Israel to normalise relations.

The current Gaza crisis has violently stripped away the carefully crafted veneer around Zionism, revealing its true essence, brutal, racist, expansionist, and devoid of humanity. Zionism is not simply an Israeli political ideology; it has metastasized into a global network embedded inside the United States and other Western power structures.

Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan has told the BBC that peace with India over the disputed territory of Kashmir would be “tremendous” for the wider region.

GENEVA – The UN Special Rapporteur on torture, Alice Jill Edwards, today urged the Government of Pakistan to take immediate and effective action to address reports of inhumane and undignified detention conditions of former Prime Minister Imran Khan, warning that they could amount to torture and other inhuman or degrading treatment.

“I call on Pakistani authorities to ensure that Khan’s conditions of detention fully comply with international norms and standards,” Edwards said.

The world’s richest countries have not done enough to combat global warming, Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan said on Friday, adding his country had done more than any other in the world to combat rising emissions relative to its economic means.

Imran Khan’s public life spans more than four decades and touches sport, philanthropy, politics, and social reform. For many Pakistanis, he first emerged as a symbol of national pride when he led the country’s cricket team to victory in the 1992 World Cup. Yet his later work, particularly in healthcare, social welfare, and governance, has shaped his legacy in ways that reach far beyond the boundary lines of a cricket field. Whether admired or criticised, his services to Pakistan and his advocacy on global platforms have left a mark that continues to influence public debate and civic life.
