Not worthy of Nobel Peace Prize: Imran Khan
Imran Khan’s peace initiative and his stance on peace in the region has prompted a lot of people to call out for Imran Khan’s nomination for the Nobel Peace Prize. A petition on change.org was signed by more than 300,000 people calling for Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan to receive a Nobel Peace Prize after he freed an Indian pilot in a bid to defuse tensions within the region.
Soon afterwards the hashtag #NobelPeaceForImranKhan began trending on Twitter and a resolution requesting the Nobel Prize for Imran Khan was also moved in the National Assembly Secretariat, said a notification released by the Ministry of Information.
However, taking to Twitter, the true statesman that he is, Imran Khan mentioned that he did not consider himself worth of a Nobel Prize.
I am not worthy of the Nobel Peace prize. The person worthy of this would be the one who solves the Kashmir dispute according to the wishes of the Kashmiri people and paves the way for peace & human development in the subcontinent.

“I am not worth of the Nobel Peace prize. The person worthy of this [Nobel Peace Prize] would be the one who solves the Kashmir dispute according to the wishes of the Kashmiri people and paves the way for peace & human development in the subcontinent,” wrote IK.
A British analyst recently wrote a piece on how Imran Khan was one of the best leaders for Pakistan after Quaid e Azam and we couldn’t agree less.
