Imran Khan raised the foreign hand charge once more, saying that while India and Pakistan gained independence together, Islamabad was used as tissue paper and thrown away by the hand of western forces.

Digital Desk: Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan has praised India as "khuddar quam" (very self-respecting people), saying that no superpower can dictate the rules to the nearby nation while admitting that both New Delhi and Islamabad do not have a good relationship. The former cricketer focused most of his nearly 50-minute speech on his allegations of a "foreign conspiracy" on Friday.

Despite Imran Khan's frantic efforts to avoid voting on the no-confidence motion, the National Assembly will today decide the premier's fate.

"The Indians are khuddar quam (very self-respecting people). No superpower can dictate the rules to India," he said in his national address on Friday, on the eve of a contentious no-confidence vote that appears certain to dismiss him. 

Imran Khan raised the foreign hand charge once more, saying that while India and Pakistan gained independence together, Islamabad was used as tissue paper and thrown away by the hand of western forces.

"I am disappointed in the Supreme Court's decision. I was upset because the Supreme Court should have looked into it when the Deputy Speaker conducted the investigation," Imran Khan said.

Further, questioned about the "rampant horse-trading in the opposition camp, Imran Khan said,  "Which country's democracy allows these kinds of acts?"

"I am displeased that these things are taking place openly; I have never seen anything like this happen in a Western democracy. I've never seen anyone sell their soul before. The Supreme Court should take up such activities on its own initiative," Imran Khan added.
