MULTAN: Former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) president Javed Hahsmi said he would “definitely win" in the upcoming by-elections  "with the support of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).”

While addressing the media in Multan, Hashmi said, “It is PML-N’s duty to support me in the elections where no other party is supporting me.”

“I am indebted to the PML-N. I would like to die with them and to be buried in their coffin, because it is my family party,” he said.

Further, Hashmi said he was honoured to have gained the PML-N’s support and grateful that they did not file a candidate against him in the upcoming polls.

He also said that the PML-N had organised 4,000 corner meetings in the last two weeks in Multan with their youth force working efficiently in Multan.

“This has extraordinarily strengthened me in the whole constituency, and my corner meetings will also give a brilliant boost to the overall voter turnout in the elections,” a confident Hashmi said.

“My victory will be the victory of democracy, and this is inevitable in the by-elections in Multan,” he said, adding that he wants to be voted on the basis of merit.

Further, he spoke about the PTI rally held in Multan, in which at least seven people died in a stampede. “The political gathering in Multan was aimed to create unrest in the city, and I will reveal the real figures behind the tragic incident.”

Meanwhile, Raja Hussain Azad, an independent candidate in the constituency, also stepped down in favour of Hashmi and had announced his support for him.
