Pakistan Muslim League Senior Vice President and Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz has asked whether Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’ (PTI) defiant Chairman Imran Khan would accept results if her party sweeps the upcoming general elections in Punjab — once a stronghold of the PML-N.
Her statement came following PTI’s severe criticism against the incumbent government after the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) postponed the general elections in Punjab — initially scheduled to be held on April 30 — citing security reasons as the major cause behind the change of plan.
Talking to a delegation of PML-N lawyers wing, who called on her in Lahore on Sunday, Maryam asked: “Who will give a guarantee that Imran Khan will accept results if PML-N wins elections in Punjab?” She added that the PTI chief may accuse Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif of rigging after the elections.
