Assad Omar, a big shot in Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf
...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is
Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations....
(PTI), sent his congratulations to the centre-right Pakistain Mohammedan League-N, which he said had emerged as the largest party, as results started to come through.
But speaking to private TV channel Geo, he refused to be defeatist.
"For Tehrik-e-Insaf it is a big day, a golden day. A party which has no existence in parliament has emerged the second largest national party and the leading party in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa where God willing it is going to form a government," he said.
Khan has called for an end to military operations and peace talks with the Taliban, making his party's win in the northwest an interesting proposition.
Omar said Imran Khan was following the results. "He will give his reaction tomorrow, but I will say he knows how to win and how to lose, and after losing, how to come back. He is taking these results like a sportsman," Omar said.
