GUJRANWALA: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senior Vice President and Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz Friday said the party was fully prepared to contest elections in Punjab or any other part of the country.
Addressing a PML-N workers’ convention, she said it was being propagated that the party were afraid of elections, but the reality was that they were ready to go to the hustings as she had already toured almost half of the Punjab province.
She was confident that the PML-N would win the general election with a thumping majority and exhorted the workers to gird their loins for the purpose.
Maryam said the people were well aware of the “negative politics” being pursued by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan.
She said it was an irony that injustice was meted out to PML-N Quaid Nawaz Sharif, who was sentenced for “not receiving a salary from his son and having an ‘Iqama’ (residential permit), while Imran Khan despite being proved a “culprit” was roaming free.
Apparently referring to the contempt of court notices issued to her recently, Maryam said the person who was not appearing before the courts despite repeated issuance of summons was, in fact, committing the contempt of court. –Agencies
