Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) chairman Imran Khan has lamented that India and Pakistan lack leaders of vision and courage and doubted the ability and determination of Nawaz Sharif and Narendra Modi to confront the challenges faced by their people.
The PTI chief said he believed peace between Pakistan and India was critical for the prosperity of the people of the subcontinent, as it will ensure economic vibrancy through trade and investment opportunities. "Peace requires conflict resolution and de-escalation of military tensions along the border, the Line of Control (LoC) and the Working Boundary," he said while speaking at a seminar in Lahore on crisis of leadership in the region.
"Unfortunately, the present leadership of Pakistan and India lacks the courage and the conviction, which has led them to hold secret meetings that can be denied," Khan said. Khan asserted that leaders lead and initiate policies, especially when political breakthroughs are required.
They are not afraid to meet publicly, he said and thought that while PM Nawaz is afraid of (security) establishment his Indian counterpart fears extremist Hindu allies of BJP.
"Leaders are expected to convince their nations of their initiatives, not hide and have "deniable" secret meetings through their business interests. Unfortunately, PM Nawaz seems unable to take any policy initiative or even a position of clarity on India publicly." - news@khaleejtimes.com
Ignoring denials in Islamabad and New Delhi, Imran expressed shock and dismay over the revelation by an Indian journalist that Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif had held a secret "deniable" meeting with his Indian counterpart in 2014 on the sidelines of the Saarc Summit in Kathmandu, Nepal.
Pakistani premier's spokesman Musaddiq Malik reacted strongly to reiteration by Imran of a story refuted by the government. "The PTI chief should feel ashamed of repeating the canard spread by an Indian journalist".
