Imran Khan Vs. Nawaz Sharif

Imran Khan Vs. Nawaz Sharif

It's interesting to see people debate between Imran Khan and Nawaz Sharif in different forums. We have to understand that no one is perfect, especially in the present political set-up in Pakistan (even though I don't support this current political electoral system at all). However, Imran Khan is definitely more educated and has a "cleaner" character than Nawaz Sharif. Imran Khan's party had the guts to stop NATO supplies from Peshawar for many months on their own starting with Dec. 2013 even though the federal government of Nawaz Sharif opposed that. With the NATO blockade, Imran Khan proved himself a strong person who does not even bow before the imperial powers. There are many other things to his credit also.

Nawaz Sharif does not even know how to speak. Last year, it was shameful to see him addressing an Urdu literary congregation where he delivered lines that were not befitting of a Prime Minister of Pakistan. Imran Khan has the gift to inspire people with his words. And he has a balanced approach towards relations of Pakistan in the international arena.

For an educated and partiotic Pakistani, the few things mentioned above do matter. But we all need to improve!
