Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) senior leader Saeed Ghani said on Sunday that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) should have the right to contest the forthcoming general elections.
Addressing the corner meeting in Karachi, Ghani said: “The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) should not take any pressure while taking any decision. We do not want the deployment of the election commissioner and returning officer at will.”
“The purpose of holding elections is not to uphold personal grudges. The politics revolving around hooliganism should not happen,” said Ghani.
The PPP leader said: “Even if all the political parties join hands together, we will still bludgeon them. All the political parties are uniting against the PPP.”
Few days back, PPP senior Manzoor Wassan claimed efforts were underway to bring former premier Nawaz Sharif into the power, the way Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder was brought.
Speaking to the media at the airport in Sukkur, Wassan said, “The elections are happening, but anything can happen during the last moments before the elections. The PPP wants timely elections in the country.”
“It is our wish that the bat symbol should remain intact,” the PPP stalwart said.
Wassan maintained: “The torture the PPP had to face was not witnessed by another political party.”
