I wonder if it will make any change in Pakistani politics controlled by Personalities, fudels, biradries. Atleast for 65 years we are experiencing the same fate . This is a failed system for Pakistan.We should try chinece system of governance
We have to admit the non-bogus, free and fair voting is ONLY going to benefit PTI. Moreover, if the ECP manages to regulate, implement and test an infrastructure for overseas voters within next 4 months, that would be the incing on cake for PTI.
Lets wait and watch!!
Good work SC, ECP and PTI towards a strong democratic Pakistan!!!
What? So each political party is going to knock doors across the country?
Good work...keep it up....but the political parties will never verify & then after election, will come up with different excuses...?
