Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Parliamentarians Chairman Pervez Khattak said on Saturday that despite his party being relatively new, it is ready to contest the upcoming polls.
Expressing his thoughts in Peshawar, the former Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) chief minister said: “The Supreme Court’s verdict on Friday had ended all the rumours revolved around holding the elections. We welcome the apex court’s verdict.”
“Those who are complaining about not having a level playing field should contest the elections,” Khattak said.
He recounted the contributions he made to KP. “We had rolled out the health card project in KP. The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) had imposed restrictions on the health card.”

“We put forward to completely restore the health card in KP. Imposing the restrictions on the health card is tantamount to waging a fight against the people of KP. We will pour on the streets if the health card is not restored completely,” Khattak said.

Few days back, Khattak said that the deposed prime minister's manifesto was based on "lies."
Addressing the public gathering in Nowshera, Khattak said: "We were of the view that the deposed premier was the country's saviour. But now, today, he has been exposed."
"The deposed PM had nothing to do in terms of playing a role in providing facilities to the people of KP, like health cards. Even he had nothing to do with the educational reforms," Khattak stated.
