Federal political leaders and parties are crucial for the well-being and stability of a federation. They play a pivotal role in representing the country’s diverse interests and needs of various regions, ethnicities, and languages. By promoting inclusivity, accommodating the concerns of different provinces, and fostering a sense of unity, federal leaders and parties contribute to the strengthening and cohesiveness of the federation. Their ability to bridge divides and address the aspirations of diverse populations is essential for upholding the principles of democracy, constitutionalism, and representation within the framework of the federation.

Pakistan operates as a federation, emphasizing the significance of democracy, constitutionalism, and representation within its framework. The upholding of justice and constitutional guarantees assumes equal importance. Moreover, effective political representation based on factors such as geography, ethnicity, language, and sects holds critical importance, considering Pakistan’s status as a federation comprising diverse ethnicities, languages, geographies, and sects. Therefore, the role played by politicians and leaders, particularly Imran Khan, is not just pivotal but urgent in fortifying the federation.

Imran Khan and the PTI stand out in the political landscape of Pakistan with their unique ability to unite the nation. Imran Khan’s popularity transcends regional boundaries, resonating with the Pashtuns and Hazaras of KPK, the populace of AJK and Gilgit-Baltistan, as well as among the people of Punjab, urban Sindh, and the Pashtun regions of Balochistan. His support extends even to the interior Sindh and the Baloch areas of Balochistan, making him a unifying force across the country.

Imran Khan’s presence is not just important, it is crucial for the Pakistani federation. The sidelining of federal leaders like Imran Khan could lead to a dangerous political-federal vacuum, potentially empowering figures such as nationalists Manzoor Pashteen, Mahrang Baloch, and others. To prevent such a scenario and safeguard the interests of the federation, it is imperative to allow Imran Khan to actively participate in politics. His absence could significantly alter the political landscape, potentially strengthening the periphery’s political standing.
