Why exactly where the papers of his brilliant and progressive man rejected?
I heard its cos he couldnt prove his degree-what a joke! Does any one know the real reason why this man has been refused his desire to serve the people of Pakistan with decency and honesty?
Plz explian this sad state of events-as we approach another sham election in Pakistan. Democracy is a mere pipedream for the nation as long as these power hungary induvidiuals keep the decent minority at bay.

In one of the Pakistani newspapers the gossip I read was that he had fallen out with Musharaff, and had been told he need not worry about anything except getting himself elected! Apparently the Gujarat Chaudaris have been blessed by the Pakistani Badhshah.
So Musharraf basically told Imran there is no hope of him being elected into PM office?
How sad is that, I'm quite pro Mushy, but if he's going to stop one of the very few decent ppl who want to be PM from running for office he must be stopped. His sham elections and ill attempt to introduce democracy in Pakistan are disgusting. I hope for the sake of the Pakistani ppl we have a transparent and clear democratic set up. We need Imran Khan to be our PM-if he turns out crap, scrap him at the balot box-but hell give the man a chance!
His constitution is top. Its on the PTI website.
hmm the man refuses to take part in the pro gov alliance even though he is running from seats where their support would make sure he could win. He criticises the chaudhrys, then criticises mush for makin deals with corrupt people and lotas just to keep out bb and ns out.
After that he files for the seats showing he has done his BA from Oxford, after the scrutiny begins he assumes everything is ok and leaves for England. As soon as he leaves suddenly he gets disqualified..
Just a wild guess, but do you think it was something he said??;)
Here’s another bit of gossip news:
Kleptocrat-Democrats
Gupshup
Of late, The Great Khan has been more and more critical of PM and his doings. Isloo’s wags are saying Khan fell out with PM after a grim exchange of words at the latter’s residence in Pindi. A fly on the wall told us that a couple of members of the top brass were in attendance during the meeting between Im the Grim and PM, including the latter’s right hand man TA. Im was apparently told that all he had to do was “win his own seat” and that “they would take care of the rest”. Im took exception to that and said he hadn’t asked for help. He went on to read out the riot act about the compromises that were being made and asked why some “kleptocrat-democrats” were kosher while other KDs were not.
You could have cut the atmosphere with a knife.
Wether or not he said something against the reigeme in Pakistan should not impact his ability to stand in national elections. Is this a democratic set up Mushraff is aiming for?
Instrumental to any democratic nation are freedom of speech and freedom of opinion, not to mention thus freedom of political alligence. If Musharraf barred him, or had him barred, on any thing other then a proven charge of corruption or a proven threat to national security should he have become PM-the barring of this man is just ridicilous.
So the man wants a true democracy-thats his crime! 
mo my man, you gotta be kidding dude! Da man crowns himself, reserves the right to amend the constitution at wil, has the SC stuffed with lotas, and you are talking about democracy?
Yeah Musharraf's emptiness in his talk of democracy is really unfortunate. I thought perhaps he would be the one to secure democratic institutions in Pakistan, ut he's just a power hungry maniac. Although he's better then the Islamist parties.
We really need democracy, and its time the ppl rose up and enforced the rule of there will on the nation-this is no longer bearable.

r u serious!!!
How can Imran become PM.. he didnt even One seat in last elections and I dont see him winning more than few this time.. it would be trajedy if he becomes PM with adictators blessings since he has no grass root political support in pakistan..
He should be allowed to run and if he wins his seat he should try to gather support from people of Paksitan.. playing cricket is entirely different than real world politics.. making a party is not difficult but transforming it into a national one is a tremendous feat.. imran is few years away of achieving that if he can do that..

I agree above with Degas.
Even though, Imran is an honest person but his popularity is no match.
Cricket ain't Politics

Well said brother degas... What happened to your old nick brother?
However, I am against the move by Musharaf, even though Imran might not be popular in Pakistan, he is still popular enough to have a shot at the PM chair... They cannot hold back BB on that graduation lapse can they? Have to come up with something better than that.
Wether he wins or not, he should be allowed to compete. :)
Did he really not have his graduation proof, is that true? ! :eek

His representative did not have the "certified" copy of his degree. They could have easily accepted it with the proviso that the certified one will have to be submitted within two weeks. Those are the rules apparently; provisional acceptance is at the discretion of the ECC officer.
Hey, you've only seen some of the toppings. The real deal is in how the ice cream turns out. Time will tell.
Maybe Mush is not playing a game and there was something wrong with the paperwork from IMran's side. who knows? Give it time and then judge.

The Generals stepped in officially in 1958 and they have never really left. How much longer do you want to wait and see? Read what the King said when he took over. He is not power hungry, and ushering in real democracy etc. Anyway it is irrelevant, since the people in Pakistan have decided to totally disconnect. I don't think it matters 1 iota to them who is in power. They are going to suffer regardless. Who cares who enjoys Margella Hills, they worry about the local Goonda and the local thanedar. Those are the real Mai Bap.

thats is the crunch part..the frisky allusive game being played underhand...sadly though:)
we're throwing around unprovable theories here - so here is one other.
Perhaps Mush's opposition has blown up an issue that isn't really a big deal. Perhaps, there was a mistake in the papers of Imran Khan (you know how disorganized offices and paperwork is out there. I'm not suprised if he did make a mistake, especially if he was dealing with idiots who dont know what they're doing), and to show the nation that Mush is trying to make a level playing field, Imran was told to redo the paperwork.
Big deal.
