Will take oath as Pak PM on August 11: Imran Khan

TIL Desk/World/Islamabad/ Imran Khan on Monday said that he will take oath as Pakistan’s prime minister on August 11, according to a media report. The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf, led by 65-year-old Khan, has emerged as the single largest party in the National Assembly (NA) after the July 25 elections, but it is still short of numbers to form the government on its own.

His party on Sunday announced that it is trying to reach out to smaller parties and independents to form the next government. Will take oath as prime minister on 11th of next month (August), Khan was quoted as said. “I have also decided about chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa which I will announce in the next 48 hours. Whatever I have decided in this regard is in the best interest of people,” he said while addressing PTI members of provincial assembly in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.

He said alleviation of poverty from interior Sindh will be among top priorities of his government. Earlier, PTI spokesman Naeemul Haque on Saturday told reporters that party chief Khan will take oath as the prime minister before August 14. He said that he hoped the president would call an assembly session and Khan would take oath as premier before Independence day.
