00:00In Pakistan's politics, there is a light music playing.
00:05We are seeing and feeling a light movement.
00:11But it is very light.
00:13In this regard, Pakistan Tariq-e-Insaaf is trying to
00:17bring together the people and political parties of Pakistan
00:23and start a movement after Eid
00:26to fight against the current government
00:29and for the rule of law in the country.
00:31They are meeting in this regard.
00:34Over the weekend, we saw that the people of Pakistan Tariq-e-Insaaf
00:37were present in Karachi.
00:39They met with the leadership of GDA.
00:42In this regard, Shahid Khakhan Abbasi
00:47is going to form an alliance.
00:52He is leading it.
00:56What is he saying?
00:58If this alliance is formed,
01:00what will be its methodology?
01:02What will be the modus operandi?
01:03How will it move forward?
01:05It is not a natural alliance.
01:07It is not a grand opposition alliance.
01:10It is a coincidence that a country cannot exist without the rule of law.
01:14A country cannot exist without the rule of law.
01:17A country cannot exist without democracy.
01:19It is a coincidence based on these principles.
01:21Everyone has their own ideology.
01:23But it is a coincidence based on these principles.
01:25Democracy can only be achieved through the rule of law.
01:29There are no other ways.
01:31The roads are the last straw
01:33when everything fails.
01:35Shahid Khakhan Abbasi is saying
01:40that the last straw in any political movement
01:45is to come to the streets.
01:48Before that,
01:50we will try to meet and talk to all political parties
01:55to stop the violations that are taking place in the country.
02:02If we look at all the political parties
02:07that are forming the opposition alliance,
02:13JUIF is a big figure of Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
02:17He has his own ideology.
02:19He has his own political party.
02:21He has his own ideology.
02:23Obviously, he is a moderate figure.
02:26Pakistan Tariq-e-Insaaf
02:28has taken extreme positions
02:32and tried to march two or three times.
02:37But they did not succeed.
02:40Pakistan Tariq-e-Insaaf is trying to take the regional parties on board.
02:45What do you think?
02:47The political parties that are forming the opposition alliance
02:51have different aims and objectives.
02:55Will they be united on a minimum agenda?
03:01They have been united on a minimum agenda.
03:05But to take on the government
03:09through street agitation,
03:13or to take on the government through street power,
03:17I don't think they are united on that yet.
03:21As it is, the JUIF has not been finalized yet.
03:26Jamaat-e-Islami is another big Jamaat.
03:28They are not included in this.
03:30But notwithstanding your view on the subject,
03:35the PTI does not need anyone for street power or public support.
03:42They are united on moral and political issues.
03:46All the opposition is united.
03:48Whether you go to the elections or accept the mandate,
03:52whatever it is,
03:54they will not give up
03:57until their objectives are achieved.
04:01You will see a lot of ifs and buts.
04:04I think they are moving in the direction
04:07where speed is not visible yet,
04:10but they have already determined the path and destination.
04:15Hassan, what we are seeing is that
04:17the JUIF is making a lot of efforts.
04:20There used to be a lot of criticism
04:23against the JUIF
04:25that they would have made their own Daydream Mosque
04:28on every issue,
04:29and would not have talked to other political parties.
04:31Obviously, the PTI is reaching out to every other political party.
04:34Shahid Khan Abbasi is a new Pakistan party.
04:39He is a former Prime Minister,
04:41but if you look at his constituency,
04:43he does not have that kind of strength.
04:45He is a known figure.
04:47He is a known figure.
04:48He is a known figure.
04:49He is a known figure.
04:50Do you think they will agree to the minimum agenda?
04:54Or do you think that this is it?
04:57They had almost agreed,
04:59but then Tariq-e-Ansar made a foul play.
05:02He took a solo flight.
05:03First he said that we will all go together.
05:05Then when the time came to give respect to someone,
05:08all the political parties,
05:10when they had to meet the Chief Justice,
05:12they did not go.
05:13They took their own people and went.
05:15They could not feed one Kamran Murtaza there.
05:18Now, when the PTI went to meet the Chief Justice,
05:22who was previously met by the Prime Minister and the Law Minister,
05:24who was Attorney General for Pakistan,
05:26he was unhappy with this.
05:29The Grand Alliance that he wanted to make,
05:31the effort,
05:33all those people are very disheartened.
05:36They will not express this.
05:38The reason for this is that they are politicians.
05:40This will be their weakness.
05:42But did Mullah Nafiz Rehman like this?
05:44Not at all.
05:45Did Shahid Khan Abbasi like this?
05:47Not at all.
05:48Did Mehmood Khan Achakzai like this?
05:49Not at all.
05:50No one liked it.
05:51And in practical terms,
05:53in words,
05:54people will say,
05:55you are with us,
05:56we are with you,
05:57we will go together,
05:58we will make efforts together.
05:59They make their own projections.
06:01And when there is a chance to give respect to someone,
06:05they do not give respect directly.
06:07When you will give respect directly to someone,
06:09then the next person will not give you flowers.
06:12Even if this alliance is made here,
06:14I am repeating this again,
06:16then those terms will be of Mullah Nafiz Rehman.
06:19And their style of politics,
06:21this style of politics does not suit Mullah Nafiz Rehman at all.
06:25They will only agree to this
06:30when they will stand behind Mullah Nafiz Rehman.
06:33They will stand behind Mullah Nafiz Rehman.
06:35Like Mullah Nafiz Rehman led PDI,
06:37Mullah Nafiz Rehman will not take such a role.
