Mahmood Khan Achakzai, leader of the opposition alliance Tehreek Tahafuz Ayeen-i-Pakistan (TTAP), has announced a bold move to overthrow the current government, pledging to rescue the nation from alleged corruption.
The rally saw leaders and workers from various opposition parties, including Tehreek-e-Insaf, Pashtun Khawa Map, and BNP Mengal, come together to demand change.
In a fiery speech at a rally in Quetta, the TTAP leader vowed to restore constitutional and legal supremacy in Pakistan and called for re-elections within three months condemning the current government as corrupt and illegitimate.
Achakzai emphasized the need for the supremacy of the constitution and law, saying, “We will not live like slaves in Pakistan.” “If our resources are targeted under the guise of combating terrorism, it will lead to disaster.”
He criticized the current government, accusing it of corruption and asserting that the national assemblies had been compromised. “This government is a thief, and the assemblies have been sold,” Achakzai declared.
The TTAP leader underscored his commitment to justice and fairness, recalling his stance at the Afghan Jirga, where he supported the oppressed against their oppressors. He emphasized that the fight for justice is a divine mandate and condemned the current government’s handling of national issues.
The opposition leader also pointed out unresolved issues, such as the murder of Benazir Bhutto, and expressed frustration over the country’s ongoing challenges. “We do not want the country to fall into ruin,” he said. “We must create a Pakistan where justice prevails and the rule of law is upheld.”
Expressing strong support for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Achakzai accused the government of attempting to suppress PTI and ban its activities, despite the party’s significant popularity under its founder, Imran Khan.
He questioned the government’s handling of these crises and criticized the lack of transparency regarding past events, including the situation on May 9, which he labeled as a significant yet unexplained failure.
He reaffirmed his alliance’s goal to empower Parliament and restore democratic processes.
