During Imran Khan’s administration, Bushra Bibi had an impact on important appointments and choices: The Economist

According to a British magazine, Bushra Bibi, the wife of former prime minister Imran Khan, allegedly had a major impact on important appointments and government decisions when he was in power.

Senior journalist Owen Bennett Jones of The Economist wrote the story, which examined how Bushra Bibi’s third marriage to Imran Khan prompted concerns about both his personal life and his style of governing.

Bushra Bibi was allegedly involved in influencing decisions about high-profile appointments and daily governmental operations, according to the report that cited people close to the PTI founder. This allegedly raised concerns about spiritual guidance taking precedence over logical decision-making.

According to the study, Imran Khan’s declared reform program may not have been carried out because of Bushra Bibi’s spiritual influence. It was alleged that she was so involved in Imran Khan’s day-to-day activities that he could not take off in his plane without her consent.

The Economist also noted claims made by certain analysts that Bushra Bibi was receiving sensitive material from select members of Pakistan’s security agencies, which she would then convey to Imran Khan as revelations from her spiritual intuition.
