TL;DR Summary
Former Indian envoy to Islamabad, Ajay Bisaria, expressed concerns about the upcoming Pakistan parliamentary elections, stating that they appear to be more of a selection than an election, with the army influencing the outcome in favor of Nawaz Sharif. He highlighted the imprisonment of former PM Imran Khan as an attempt to sideline him and his party, suggesting that the army aims to bring in a coalition it can control. Bisaria also emphasized the need for free and fair elections and suggested that Pakistan's actions post-elections will impact India-Pakistan relations.
