IMF
Aamir Dogar, a prominent figure in the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has emphatically denied allegations that the party has written a letter to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), urging the lender to ensure an audit of Pakistan’s elections before engaging in any bailout talks.
In an interview with Tariq Chaudhry on Aaj Exclusive, Dogar questioned the existence of any such letter and stated, “If there will be any letter from our side that will be sent officially to somewhere or published or a media talk on it, so it will be then.”
When pressed further on whether a letter had been written, Dogar responded, “I think no letter has so far been written.” This denial comes in the wake of claims by chairman Barrister Gohar Khan, who, three days earlier, asserted during a news conference in Islamabad that the party had indeed sent a letter to the IMF.
Dogar, also serving as the Sunni Ittehad Council’s chief whip in the National Assembly, highlighted the distinction between suggesting an idea and officially communicating it.
He stated, “There is a big difference between writing a letter and a letter written.” According to Dogar, any discussions around the alleged letter could be in the realm of suggestions or options, but as of the present moment, there is no concrete evidence of such a letter.
The controversy surrounding the purported letter has garnered attention as the multi-party coalition, potentially forming the central government, criticized the letter, emphasizing the commitment to demanding free and fair elections from the IMF.
Dogar’s denial comes amidst ongoing political developments and scrutiny over the alleged communication with the international financial institution.
