Former Pakistan PM Imran Khan, who has been in jail for a long time, wants to become the Chancellor of Britain's prestigious Oxford University. He has also applied for this. This step of Imran has raised many questions on his and PTI's politics.
Former Pakistan PM Imran Khan has surprised everyone by applying for the post of Chancellor of Oxford University. Former Prime Minister of Pakistan Imran Khan has been in jail for more than a year. Imran Khan has applied for the top post of Britain and the world's prestigious university Oxford from jail itself.His move has also given rise to the question whether Imran Khan, who has been the most talked about leader of Pakistan in the last two decades, now wants to go out of the country. Imran is now looking for a third option after cricket and politics. Also, is Imran giving a hint to the Pakistan Army that he is no longer interested in politics?
Imran Khan had entered the politics of Pakistan with the promise of creating 'Naya Pakistan'. He also got a lot of success but things have been very difficult for him for some time now. He is now in jail and there is no sign of his release at present. The most important reason for this is considered to be his lack of good relations with the Pakistan Army.
Imran will stay away from politics!
Imran is not an unknown face in Britain. Imran has been very popular in Britain during his cricket career. At the same time, being Chancellor will also not be a new thing for him. Imran was the Chancellor of the University of Bradford for eight years from 2005 to 2014. In such a situation, Imran Khan may get a chance to work as Chancellor of Oxford but it will take him away from the politics of Pakistan.
If Imran becomes the Chancellor of Oxford, will he say goodbye to Pakistani politics? Or is it a signal to Pakistan's powerful military that they want to find a way out rather than make things worse. Political experts believe that going to Britain will provide relief to Imran from jail while the Army and other parties will also get relief.
Imran has studied from Oxford only
Imran Khan has an old relationship with Oxford. He had graduated from Oxford itself. Imran was a student of politics, philosophy and economics at Keble College, Oxford in the 1970s. If Imran becomes Chancellor, he will be the first person of Asian origin to hold this post. For this post, Imran will have to compete with former British Prime Ministers Tony Blair and Boris Johnson.
