PML-N is ready to participate in the elections: Maryam Nawaz

GUJRANWALA: Maryam Nawaz, the chief organizer of the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz, said on Friday that her party was prepared to run in the elections and that she had already visited the most of Punjab.

In a ferocious speech at a rally in Gujranwala, she urged equal opportunities for all participants and expressed confidence in the PML-N’schancesof a “thumping victory” in the elections. While making reference to leaked audio of Fawad Chaudhary and his brother Faisal Chaudhary, she urged PTI to adopt the election symbol of “Truck.”

Taking a jab at Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chief Imran Khan, Maryam Nawaz called him a “mentally retarded person” and criticized his failed initiatives, including the “Jail Bharo Tehreek” and long march, etc. She accused Imran of filling his own pockets and directing his workers to “fill jails”.

Nawaz also called for justice for PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif, stating that a proven culprit and thief was roaming free while the hands of PML-N were being tightened. She taunted Imran’s recent questioning of the increasing dollar-rupee parity ratio, stating that a person imposed after the “Panama Conspiracy” was questioning the destruction of the economy.

Ms Nawaz urged Imran’s facilitators to desist from reviving him, as she believed he had already finished politically. She also criticized his (Imran’s) decision to leave the assemblies in April and later implore for the restoration of assembly memberships of his lawmakers, calling his decisions that of a “mentally disturbed person”.
