Guys, Hate propaganda is also on move since they saw the growing popularity of IK. Some sources are quoting former PTI workers like the one as follows:
Had a brief chat with a former (high) office holder of PTI-Lahore. I asked him why he had left PTI and the main reasons he gave was "disillusionment". He said Imran Khan is a celebrity of course but the problem is he thinks like a celebrity and not like a politician. I asked him what he meant by that. He gave me the example that once we organized a function/conference for 1600 die-hard PTI supporters from all over to whom Imran was supposed to come give a pep-talk of sorts. The event was organized weeks in advance and was all set but at the last minute Imran got a call to appear on a talk show and he just dumped his workers because he thought being on a talk show was more important and we got left with many angry supporters who swore they would never attend another meeting. He also talked about IK's habit of avoiding meeting people for reasons such as "Meray workout ka time hai!". He claimed even most of the office bearers can not get time from him and quite a few of them have never even met him. He said compare that to MQM: Although they just recently opened an office here, they run the place like a professional organization: they have divided Lahore into six sectors and the sector chiefs meet DAILY and give progress reports, etc. 40 of the local workers have already met Altaf Hussain (MQM arranged for their visas, paid for their tickets and expenses). Sure, he says, they were asked to do "bait" on Altaf's hand that they will "never double cross him or ELSE..." but I am talking organization. PTI hasn't any what so ever and even today things are run by the boot-straps -- there is no planning of any sort.
Another thing he mentioned was that no advice is ever followed, hardly any email gets a response. For example, he says, we once came up with an action plan on how to pick areas, chose candidates for those areas at least two years in advance so that they can start meeting people in their constituency, "un kay ghum aur khushi maiN shariq houN", provide help to people when possible, etc. Says he didn't hear a thing till six months later when he met Imran and there too all Imran said was "Yar XYZ, tum naiN mujhay jo plan bhayja tha um per kabhi bat karaiN g@y.." and that was it. That time never came....
(I know this is going to peeve a lot of PTI people but this confirms many of my beliefs about PTI/Imran and why they have had little success and why they are facing the same in the future...)
