I came here to work. I came here to contribute. I didn’t come for any positions. I don’t know if there’s been a conspiracy. My Kaptaan didn’t see me fit for the role, we had the discussion and that’s that.

I was reminding the PM that the day I agreed to join PTI; I told the PM that you have nothing to give to me that is of interest to me. This I am doing for Pakistan. & he said this is exactly why I want you to join. I truly believe Imran Khan will still change Pakistan.

Just compare the first 8 months of PPP and PMLN vs the first 8 months of PTI. We had the biggest economy burden but we have still performed better than both of them in the first 8 months

Our economy is going through a tough time and opposition is using it to score points. The new team will face its difficulties too. But like I asked for time, you will have to give them time too

The Pakistani FM’s responsibility is to the 21 crore of Awaam. If I have to make choices where there is 2-3 months of uncertainty in capital markets vs destroying the awaam, I will always choose the awaam.
