In his address to the nation Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday lauded India as “khuddar quam” (very self-respecting people), saying that no superpower can dictate terms to the neighbouring country.
“Indians are khuddar quam (very self-respecting people). No superpower can dictate terms to India,” he said on Friday during his national address on the eve of a controversial no-confidence vote that looks certain to dismiss him.
He added: “I’m disappointed that only due to RSS ideology and what is done with Kashmir we don’t have a good relation.”

Raising the foreign hand charge again, Imran Khan said both India and Pakistan got their independence together but Islamabad gets used as tissue paper and thrown away by the hand of foreign forces.
“We and India got our independence together but Pakistan gets used as a tissue paper and thrown away,” he said adding that while he is not anti-American, the foreign conspiracy is an “attack on our sovereignty.”
Imran Khan government suffered a setback on Thursday as Pakistan Supreme Court set aside the ruling of the Deputy Speaker in which he had rejected the no-confidence motion brough by the opposition.
Addressing further, the Prime Minister expressed his disappointment over the Supreme Court’s decision.
“I am upset with the Supreme Court’s decision. I was upset because when the Deputy Speaker conducted the probe, the Supreme Court should have investigated it,” he said.
The Supreme Court gave directions for holding the sitting of the National Assembly “not later than 10:30 am on April 9” for the no-trust vote.
The court set aside all the subsequent steps taken after the rejection of the no-confidence vote.
It also declared that the Prime Minister and federal ministers, ministers of state, advisers stand restored to their respective offices as on April 3.
The top court further ruled that the National Assembly session on the no-confidence motion must be convened by Saturday morning and must not be adjourned until a vote on the motion.
