On last Saturday Mr ImranKhan was sworn in as Prime Minister of Pakistan. But he will be daunted with many challenges. The country has balance payments crisis. The judiciary, there must be in hyperactive mood, many Pakistanis, including senior military officials blame the incompetent, political class for its chronic problems. They have been yearning for a messiah like figure who can turn Pakistan into a financially autonomous, and militarily robust nation that is respected globally. They see Mr Khan as man of that destiny. Imran Khan was repeatedly proclaimed as front runner by the Pakistani media made people suspect that he has backing of Army-ISI. An interesting fact about him is that , though it’s a coincidence, Khan made his team, world champion in 1992 by 22 runs, became 22nd Prime Minister, of Pakistan after 22 years of struggle. His slogan for NAYA PAKISTAN, must have got acceptance as he constructed a cancer hospital and must be providing a world class Education in the form of Nama University. If Mr Khan who sought to portray himself as different from others and is aspiring to change the narrative of Pakistan, let him attempt it.
