Islamabad: Defence Minister Khawaja Asif said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan had been involved in "Proxy war" since his ouster from Prime Minister's office.

"For one-and-a-half years Imran Khan was involved in proxy war," Minister said during Private TV channel talks.

Kh. Asif alleged that PTI Chief was fulfilling "Israeli agenda" in country, adding that Tel Aviv was worried that its "Agenda" was being stopped in Pakistan.

He said that PTI Chief asks his people to tweet to check response of institutions and wants Pakistan to remain unstable.

"They have targeted defence institutions only," said Asif, referring to May 9 mayhem when defence institutions were mostly targeted.

He was connecting Imran Khan to Israel as Tel Aviv had recently targeted Pakistan during presentation of Universal Periodic Report of Pakistan at United Nations Human Rights Council.

He said that no name had been finalised for interim Prime Minister. "Caretaker government will hold elections within 60 or 90 days."
