LAHORE:


Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) provincial organiser Chaudhry Sarwar said on Friday the party had made its way to parliament through votes and those trying to unseat its legislators would be ousted by people in the next general elections.


He was speaking to Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly Mian Mahmoodur Rasheed and PTI provincial deputy organiser Sibtain Khan at his office. They discussed the political situation, local government elections and matters related to the party.

Sarwar said holding elections without electoral reforms would be useless. He said the PTI would soon launch a campaign across the province to seek people’s support.

He said the current rulers had set new records of bad governance.

“The PTI has been playing the role of a true opposition. It continues to fight for the rights of people,” he said. He said those afraid of defeat in the next general elections wanted to unseat PTI parliamentarians.
