People were lauding Imran Khan:
If people think that @ImranKhanPTI can’t deliver. Have a good look at #KartarpurCorridor . He did what no one can do, how can we expect a country broken by corruption to the lowest level to come out to 💯 in just one year or over night. I have no doubt that vote I gave was wrong.
