Imran Khan's PTI ready for role as opposition party

Lahore, May 12 (ANI): The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) has said it has emerged as the second largest national party, capable of playing the role of a strong, active opposition in the National Assembly.

Central PTI leader Asad Omar sounded confident of a future for his party in national politics and did not appear disappointed at its poorer-than-expected electoral performance in Punjab, reports The Dawn.

He added that the PTI will be able to independently form its government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

Omar ruled out the possibility of the PTI becoming part of a coalition at the national level, but did not rule out partnering with some smaller parties to form its government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa if it did not obtain enough provincial assembly seats. (ANI)
