Imran Khan and Mian Aslam Iqbal, PTI candidates from NA-122 and PP-148 (Lahore) have also violated ECP code of conduct for campaigning.
Why only PML-N is targeted by agencies-funded media?. Why bureaucracy has been shuffled in Punjab only while the establishment & the political Governors continue in other provinces?? Why all other parties fronted by PPP (PMLQ, PTI etc) target PML-N???
