Federal Minister for Railways Azam Khan Swati on Monday lashed out at the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and asked how many notices had the body sent to Opposition leaders Maryam Nawaz and Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
“How many notices has the ECP sent to Maryam Nawaz and Fazlur Rehman that it has sent a notice to me?” Swati asked the body, as he addressed a press conference alongside Advisor to the Prime Minister on Parliamentary Affairs Dr Babar Awan in Islamabad.
The ECP had issued notices to Swati and the Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Fawad Chaudhry last week after they had levelled allegations against the institution, sources had informed Geo News.
The railways’ minister said Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja was “speaking the language of the Opposition and the incumbent government was facing it.”
