On Imran Khan's popularity in Pakistan, the Security expert, Devashir told ANI, "There are a couple of reasons for his popularity. One is...he has very strong support among the middle class and the lower middle class."
"Then, the youth.... he has a massive social media sense and presence. Then, his own persona, even if he speaks a total lie, people tend to believe it. even if he breaks, or misquotes a religious saying, people say ....nhi nhi yeh theek hai (no...no it is right)."
"In today's world, the youth listen to social media, they listen to his tweets, his video podcasts ...he has created this machinery of people who... saturation...I mean, ...you know the importance of social media. The PPP and PML-N are no match for this.," he added. (ANI)
