@liaqat ali: I'm assuming you weren't in Punjab or Pakistan for the last 5 years OR you simply don't know the meaning of corruption?
His Govt was the most corrupt ever.If people like him and Musharraf are eleigible and pass the article 62 /63 ,then nation should be spared this agony of everyday tamasha of checking nomination papers.All of us are eligible then.
and he shall sail through NA 105. No sympathy vote for ahmad mukhtar this time out and no notable PML N or PTI candidate from NA 105 anyway. I think PTI has completely ignored Gujrat and Mandi Bahaudin for some strange reasons. No notable candidate in both cities. Anyway i will still vote PTI.
