This is the only story that matters when it comes to Pakistan. 👇
For nearly 3 years former Prime Minister Imran Khan has been in a death cell, and from what the reports suggest, has gone blind in one eye due to torture at the hands of the current brutal military dictatorship in Pakistan. And for last 6 months especially he has been in total isolation facing psychological torture with no meetings with family.
This is how terrorists are treated in prison cells the way former Prime Minister, a Cricketing Hero, and someone who built cancer hospitals for the poorest in the country is being treated.
At the moment there is no proof of his life and has become a missing person by an illegitimate military regime. This unpopular regime is only able to maintain its grip on power through foreign endorsement and backing from Western liberal democracies, Arab Monarchies, and the US that find a compliant military dictator in Pakistan to be more useful than a stable and sovereign democracy.
The ultimate price of a dictatorship is paid by the 240 million people in the country.
Free Imran Khan!
ایک آدمی نے گھر میں اعلان کیا، جو بچہ دوپہر کا کھانا نہیں کھائے گا، اسے 10 روپے انعام ملے گا۔ سب بچوں نے 10، 10 روپے وصول کر لیے۔ رات کو اعلان ہوا، کھانا صرف انھی کو ملے گا جو 10 روپے واپس دیں گے۔ بجٹ 2026۔ خالد انعم

“Never give up, no matter how hard life gets no matter how much pain you feel. Pain will eventually subside, nothing remains forever, so keep going and don't give up.” ― Imran Khan
Free Imran Khan! Imran Khan has been left to languish in a Pakistani prison cell for over three years. Today in the House of Commons I presented a petition calling for his release, as well as the release of all political prisoners in Pakistan.
This budget should make your blood boil. Let me show you why.
Pakistan's interest payments this year: Rs. 8,054 billion.
Pakistan's entire development budget, roads, dams, hospitals, schools, everything: Rs. 1,000 billion.
Eight rupees go to debt service for every one rupee invested in this country. This is not a budget. This is a confession.
Understand what this debt is. It was not borrowed to build Pakistan. Over the years, it was borrowed by corrupt politicians who were simultaneously busy building their own empires, inside and outside of Pakistan.
Now you and I are paying interest on their corruption.
Government will borrow another Rs. 7,000 billion on top of everything that already exists.
Borrow to pay interest on previous borrowing.
This is a debt trap and we are in it.
And they took out full page newspaper adverts at your expense to celebrate it.
Now let's look at Bangladesh. Same region. Same starting point. Very different choices.
Bangladesh total budget: $76 billion. Pakistan: $60 billion.
Bangladesh development spending: $24 billion. Pakistan: $3.6 billion.
Bangladesh interest payments: $10.4 billion. Pakistan: $29 billion.
Bangladesh education budget: $6.9 billion. Pakistan, federal and all four provinces combined: $3.5 billion.
They have 83 million fewer people than us and still spend twice as much educating them.
Bangladesh defence: $3.5 billion. Pakistan defence: $10.8 billion.
We spend 3 times more on defence than Bangladesh and our interest bill is 8 times their entire defence budget.
They are spending 6.5 times more on building their country than we are. And they are paying a third of what we pay in interest.
Now look at what this has done to our people.
Pakistan's GDP and Bangladesh's GDP are almost identical, around $450 billion each.
But Pakistan has 83 million more people.
Bangladesh's income/person: $2,621.
Pakistan: $1,901.
There taka is 122/dollar
Our Rs is 278/dollar
Poverty in Pakistan: 44.7%.
Poverty in Bangladesh: 5.9%.
Literacy in Pakistan: 60% (doubtful)
Literacy in Bangladesh: 77%
Once again our interest payments:
Rs. 8,054 billion.
Our defence budget: Rs. 3,000 billion. Interest payments are 2.7 times the defence budget.
This is far more damning than anything else!
I want to say something clearly. If this trajectory is not broken in the next two to three years, the security of this country will become unaffordable.
This is not a political statement.
This is basic maths.
These numbers are not accidental.
This is what elite capture looks like.
Wake up.
