LAHORE MIRROR — Former PTI leader and business tycoon Jahangir Khan Tareen announced new political party “Istehkam-e-Pakistan” today.
He made the announcement during a press conference in the provincial capital. Aleem Khan and several PTI defectors including Imran Ismail and Tanveer Ilyas were also present on the occasion.
Tareen said he had joined politics for just one purpose — to contribute to the country’s progress.
He said the events of May 9 had changed the politics of Pakistan, adding if the miscreants and planners of May 9 are not taken to task, attacks on houses of political rivals will also be considered acceptable.
Tareen said the PTI’s manifesto was to improve the economy and relations with other countries and most importantly, ensure accountability.
“There were the slogans on the basis of which the party was formed and people voted for the PTI,” he said, regretting that these objectives could not be achieved.
