on Thursday reiterated his demand for the mid-term elections, vowed to move ahead with his planned 'million march towards the capital if his party's demand for the early polls is not accepted by the government.

"We want Pakistain Moslem League-Nawaz (PML-N) government dissolved, a caretaker setup installed, and midterm polls announced. Nothing short of these things would be able to budge us," Khan said in an exclusive talk to a private TV channel. Khan expressed his determination that after reaching the capital, their protest would continue till the acceptance of his demands. Commenting on the deployment of the Pakistain Army in the capital and a possible use of brute force to keep PTI's marchers out of the city, he said that in case of any Model Town like violence, he would like to take a bullet in his chest before anyone else.

He lamented that the rulers are in a state of confusion and have decided to use the armed force as a shield to protect their unlawful rule. The PTI chief also warned the US and Soddy Arabia

The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
against meddling in the affairs of Pakistain. "I am asking both Washington and Riyadh to leave Pakistain's politics alone as it is none of their business," Khan said. To a question, he said that Punjab Chief minister Shahbaz Sharif

was sending fence-mending messages through a number of channels, but it was too late for a "deal". "We are far beyond the political point-of-no-return, thus an understanding with PML-N was out of question now," Khan stressed.

He alleged that the rulers have changed the democracy into monarchy, and turned their sons into princes. He further alleged that the 33-year old son of Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif
