Kasim Khan, the son of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder Imran Khan, has taken a prominent role in campaigning for his father, who is running for the position of chancellor at Oxford University. This move comes amid growing controversy, as Oxford faces significant backlash over Imran Khan’s candidacy.
According to the Daily Mail, Oxford University has been inundated with angry emails and petitions. Critics are labeling Imran Khan as an unsuitable candidate for the chancellorship. Despite the protests, Kasim Khan has shown unwavering support for his father.
In a recent Instagram story that gained traction on social media, Kasim wrote, “Abba for chancellor – make it happen!” and shared a link to an article in The Week detailing Imran Khan’s nomination.
