'Form 47' Rulers Have No Authority to Make Decisions
Faisalabad: Former president and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Dr Arif Alvi has claimeded that the “powerless Form 47 rulers” could not make decisions which made no sense to hold political dialogues with them.
Alvi, while talking to journalists in Faisalabad on Wednesday, claimed that the incarcerated party founder Imran Khan is being told to “strike a deal and leave the country”. He further said that Khan rejected the offer and decided not to leave the country "at any cost".
Alvi, the former president, predicted that those who were colluding to sentence Khan would face a complete failure.

Commenting on the dialogue offers, the politico said that his party is ready to hold talks with “stakeholders but not with the non-stakeholders”. He asked the stakeholders to let go of hatred and practice compassion.
He also said that stakeholders should not be afraid of any kind of risks after the PTI founder’s release. Alvi demanded releasing the former prime minister, the supremacy of law in the country, and returning the party’s mandate.
Alvi further said that his party could not hold the incumbent rulers who were as much “powerless” as they came into power via “Form 47” and didn’t have the “authority” to make decisions. He said his party would hold dialogue with the one who has real power to make decisions.
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, Alvi also said that he has “lost all hope as accountability is impossible in Pakistan”.
