The party aims to create a welfare state, where the state is responsible for education, health and employability of citizens.[citation needed] It promotes freedom of thought and dismantling religious discrimination in Pakistan.[10][11]
Directly following its founding in 1996, the party had little initial success.[12] Khan won a seat in the 2002 Pakistani general election. The party boycotted the 2008 election, but in 2013 it received over 7.5 million votes, making it second in the number of votes and third in the number of seats won. In 2018, it received 16.9 million votes, the largest for any political party in Pakistani history. Following this successful election into office, the party nominated its leader Imran Khan to be Prime Minister. Currently the party is in government at the national level and governs the provinces of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab. It is also a part of the coalition government in Balochistan and acts as the largest opposition party in Sindh.[13][14]
The party terms itself an anti-status quo movement advocating egalitarian Islamic democracy.[3][4][5] It claims to be the only non-dynastic party of mainstream Pakistani politics.[15] With over 10 million members in Pakistan and abroad, it claims to be Pakistan's largest party by membership.[16][17][18]
