Ousted PM Imran Khan's criticism has chipped away at the army's reputation domestically.
Pakistan's military, with its outsized influence, has seized power and imposed martial law three times since the country gained independence 75 years ago. Even when civilian governments are in power, the army is widely assumed to be manipulating politics behind the scenes.
Khan would like elections to be held immediately, as he accuses his political opponents of corruption and elitism. The current government is refusing to bend from its intention to hold elections as scheduled, no earlier than August 2023. Khan's base, which includes many younger Pakistanis like this man attending an Oct. 28 rally in Lahore, are passionate in their demands for new elections and their disdain for the current government.
