A new chapter in Pakistan’s political history has begun, as Reham Khan — a well-known journalist and the former wife of PTI founder Imran Khan — officially launched her own political party. The announcement was made during a press conference at the Karachi Press Club, where Reham introduced the Pakistan Republic Party as a new platform aimed at representing the common people.
In her speech, Reham Khan said that the party was born out of the increasing frustration among ordinary citizens who feel ignored by those in power. She promised that her party would speak up for the people, highlight their problems, and stand against the elite who, she believes, have controlled the country’s politics for far too long.
She also explained why she chose to launch the party in Karachi. According to her, the city holds great importance in her personal and professional journey. She recalled how the Karachi Press Club had supported her in the past, and how the city played a key role in shaping her public image.
Reflecting on her life, Reham shared memories from her time as a journalist with the BBC and spoke about her experiences living with her mother in Pakistan. She said these moments helped her build a deeper connection with the country and its people, and gave her the motivation to work for a better future for Pakistan.
Reham Khan’s entry into politics with the launch of the Pakistan Republic Party marks a bold move, one that adds a new voice to the political landscape and promises to challenge the status quo.
