I agree with Rauf.
Imran Khan should have not bothered to respond Hashmi's non-sense.
Even Multan does not own him anymore after betrayal to pti. He got defeated by an unknown person Amir Dogare because of this.
He cannot win even if he becomes concensus candidate of pti ppp and pmln. An independent person could defeat him easily - he is that much unpopular. In local body election his son-in-law got defeated in home town, makhdoom rashid.
Hashmi is politically dead. Nawaz Sharif is just using it in Panama situation.
