Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, who has 'inherited' the chairmanship of Pakistan Peoples Party, should start his political career from the grassroot level, like the Nehru family scion Rahul Gandhi has done in India, cricketer-turned-politician Imran Khan has advocated."You can inherit a house, jewellery. but how can you inherit other people's wishes, dreams? A democratic political party, being inherited - it is mockery of democracy," said in an interview to Sky News.Khan, however added that if Bilawal "gets educated, and is starting from below - like Rahul Gandhi in India," it would be great.Criticising President Pervez Musharraf for holding on to power, Khan said he had no "legitimacy" in the country's politics as the "new Parliament does not recognise him"."Musharraf has no legitimacy. He was never elected. but forced himself on a Parliament which doesn't exist any more.There is a new Parliament, which doesn't recognise him!" Khan said.The former fast bowler, who was not invited to the Olympic torch ceremony in the federal capital earlier this month despite being the country's best-known sportsman, also said he would have hated to attend the ceremony with President Musharraf."It doesn't matter if they forgot me. I would have hated to attend the ceremony with President Musharraf," said the chief of Tehrik-e-Insaaf party.He also said both PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif and PPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari had been given a great opportunity by the February 18 general election and it remains to be seen how they utilise it.Khan also spoke of his broken marriage to glamorous British socialite Jemima Khan. The couple were married for almost 10 years before divorcing in 2004.Jemima had converted to Islam and moved to Pakistan to be with her husband and was also involved in supporting his political work."It's very difficult to leave your country and go and live somewhere else and especially for her because she is close to her family and her friends and she found it very difficult to actually live away from home," Khan who remains on good terms with his ex-wife said.Khan however maintained the divorce between the two was "amicable" and that they still shared a "very strong bond"."Our divorce was a very amicable divorce. It was because the two of us realised that she could not live in Pakistan, and I could not live outside Pakistan," he said."Once we realised that, it became impossible to then make the marriage work. And yet we have a very strong bond, we always had it. don't forget she is the mother of my two children. Will always be," he added.Asked whether Jemima's "big fight" for him while he was imprisoned during last year's emergency had created a new bonding between them, Khan said, the relationship between the two was always strong."Our relationship was (always) strong. Jemima has become more political than before. She had earlier been involved during my campaigns, but this time, she really got political," Khan said.Strongly advocating restoration of the sacked judges in Pakistan, Khan said the abuse of power in the country couldn't stop unless the justice system was restored."There is no way my party was going to fight for elections while a military dictator sacked 60 per cent of the judges," said Khan, who was jailed for seven days following the imposition of emergency in November last year.
