ISLAMABAD: Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Khursheed Shah said on Wednesday that there has been pre-poll rigging in the Gilgit-Baltistan (G-B) elections and has written to the premier in this regard but has still received no answer.
"I have written a letter to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif that there has been pre-poll rigging in the G-B elections but I got no reply from him," Shah said while speaking in his parliamentary chamber.
"This does not happen in developed country that an opposition leader writes a letter to the head of the state to which he does not reply."
Shah said that there were countrywide protests against Prime Minister Nawaz and his government claiming that they were involved in electoral fraud in the 2013 general elections but the government has learnt no lessons.
The opposition leader said many parties have raised concerns about the appointment of the G-B governor.
"The prime minister is making more friends than enemies," the leader of the opposition said.
