00:00 Um, Muneeb,
00:02 tell us, does the credibility of elections matter?
00:05 At this time, we say that it doesn't matter, right?
00:09 What difference will it make if it doesn't happen now?
00:11 Well, in any decent world,
00:14 or in any decent country,
00:16 credibility matters a lot, sir.
00:18 But since we are not so decent,
00:20 and I won't say we are indecent,
00:23 but not so decent,
00:24 it doesn't matter to us.
00:25 It won't matter to us.
00:26 At this time, I think,
00:27 experience matters more.
00:29 First of all, let me tell you,
00:31 that regarding elections,
00:34 since we have a kind of
00:36 a decree from the Justice,
00:38 that you don't have to say anything like that,
00:40 I don't have to say anything like that, but...
00:42 You can say it to Begum Sahiba, sir.
00:44 Yes, I am Begum Sahiba,
00:46 but right now, my Begum Sahiba is not present,
00:48 I am talking to you right now.
00:50 Sir, I am very grateful,
00:51 I and she are kept separate,
00:53 I am very grateful to you.
00:54 You are doing a wrong thing.
00:56 Yes, yes.
00:57 Sir, the thing is,
00:59 at this time, the situation,
01:01 let me tell you seriously,
01:03 why am I talking about experience?
01:05 Look, in this situation,
01:07 at this time, the ground that is on,
01:09 I get the pulse that
01:11 PTI is far ahead from other political parties,
01:16 whether it is PMLN,
01:18 the dominant factor is Punjab,
01:20 PTI is ahead,
01:22 and is in a good position.
01:25 But the problem is that
01:27 whatever PTI has done with itself,
01:29 or whatever has happened,
01:31 what is the scope for PTI?
01:33 There is no scope.
01:35 I think they will end up next to nothing.
01:37 And frankly, this is what I think.
01:39 Now the problem is,
01:41 how is all that possible?
01:43 If a system like this is to come again,
01:45 it will not come like this,
01:47 until there is some other,
01:49 as they say, bone-breaking work
01:51 before the elections.
01:53 If I say bone-breaking,
01:55 then you should understand a little
01:57 that something else,
01:59 with which further damage can be done
02:01 to PTI or PTI can be done.
02:03 For that too, then some other way,
02:05 some other conviction,
02:07 some other decision,
02:09 some other thing.
02:11 I think this is the logical thing
02:13 that comes to my mind.
02:15 Because in such circumstances,
02:17 I will say it openly,
02:19 how much will be the managed election
02:21 and how much will be the managed election?
02:23 Frankly, there can be a slight difference.
02:25 And is there any tension
02:27 that Mr. Mian is going to be a 'ladla'?
02:29 No, I think this,
02:31 Mr. Mian,
02:33 there are some things,
02:35 Mr. Kaj, like it was connected to PTI,
02:37 that PTI was a project
02:39 brought by General Bajwa and General Fais.
02:41 So that is one thing,
02:43 which becomes inextricable.
02:45 It was such a sticker,
02:47 it did not come off,
02:49 but fortunately this thing is connected again.
02:51 Sir, what did the People's Party do?
02:53 I am one of the reasons for this.
02:55 Nawaz Sharif has snatched the crown
02:57 of being a 'ladla' from Imran Khan.
02:59 Now I see this every day,
03:01 sitting on TV every day,
03:03 saying that Mian Nawaz Sharif is a 'ladla'.
03:05 That is true, that is true.
03:07 And it is obvious that Mr. Mian has
03:09 re-aligned himself,
03:11 re-adjusted his politics,
03:13 retreated on many important things.
03:15 And when I say re-adjusted,
03:17 you must remember that when he gave
03:19 a speech, or whatever speech he gave,
03:21 Mr. Shahbaz had to run
03:23 on the ship,
03:25 as he said.
03:27 So he ran and then obviously
03:29 there was a little tension created
03:31 and the matter was settled.
03:33 So from that we can only know that
03:35 till then the matters can be fine for Mr. Mian,
03:37 till there is no fight, no conflict,
03:39 no problem. But I will say this,
03:41 that the credibility of the election
03:43 will not matter frankly,
03:45 but I will tell you that
03:47 the election, now I don't know
03:49 if I will be able to do it,
03:51 but logically if I see it,
03:53 I think that maybe 8th February
03:55 will be a week or two ahead,
03:57 because some people have a genuine concern
03:59 that in some places there is snowfall,
04:01 in some places there is a problem,
04:03 so let's move the week ahead,
04:05 let's move the plan ahead.
04:07 But from that many technical issues
04:09 come up. If you want to elect
04:11 the Prime Minister,
04:13 then you will have to elect the whole assembly
04:15 without the Prime Minister being elected.
04:17 The school should be complete,
04:19 the electoral college should be complete.
