Khan said there would be chaos in Pakistan if the nation allowed another term to the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) rulers. He said all the politicians, including Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan, have been playing with the sentiments of people and did nothing for their betterment, The Nation reports. Khan, while commenting on Nawaz Sharif, said the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief should keep at arm length the incompetent advisors surrounding him and award tickets to honest and clean people from his party's platform for the next general elections. Khan said former military dictator and former President General (retired) Pervez Musharraf and PPP leadership totally failed to provide relief to the masses during their tenures.
