Pakistan's Prime Minister Imran Khan completes two years in the government this August. While he began innings by promising to create a 'Naya Pakistan' free of corruption, mismanagement, foreign debt and poor economy, his performance seems to have fallen short. Now, he faces several challenges with the economy taking its worst hit in 68 years, combating the COVID-19 pandemic and controversies surrounding Kashmir after India revoked Article 370. In this episode, we spoke to Dr Aasim Sajjad Akhtar, Associate Professor of Political Economy at the National Institute of Pakistan Studies, Quaid-i-Azam University to discuss the challenges that Imran Khan's government will be facing going forward and to assess his remaining term as Prime Minister.
