The chairman PTI said Pakistan has a special bond with Saudi Arabia. "After becoming the prime minister, I will strengthen these ties. We want a relationship of mutual interest with US."Separately, while addressing locals during his visit to Islamabad's Iqbal Town on Tuesday,PTI Chairman Imran Khan said that the people residing near the federal capital territory were in a dire condition.Imran remarked about the streets with overflowing gutters saying that former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi is contesting from Sohan too but the roads were inundated with sewage.The government ruled for five years but the people living near the capital are living in such poor conditions, said the PTI chairman.The PTI chief is visiting parts of the country as per his election campaign schedule.
