Express News screen grab of Pervaiz Rashid media talk on Monday.
ISLAMABAD:
Information Minister Pervaiz Rashid said on Monday that Imran Khan was misleading the masses, and that there was discrepancy between his statements to the media, and what he said during his meetings with Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) officials, Express News reported.
While talking to the media outside the Parliament on Monday, Rashid said that Imran had failed to mention his basic arguments on poll rigging, i.e. ballot printing in Urdu Bazaar and change of results after the ‘victory’ speech by Nawaz Sharif - which he had repeated ad nauseam for the past eight months, in his meeting with the chief Election Commissioner today.
Rashid said that ballots had been printed on special paper at the security press and not on any ordinary press in the Urdu Bazaar.
The minister argued that now the PTI chief wants National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq to be suspended, and not be allowed to continue with his duties.
Regarding the forthcoming Senate elections, Rashid said that the PTI could not win the polls in Sindh, Punjab and Balochistan.
