With a view to expose and prevent election rigging, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has finalised anti-rigging system (ARS). Under the system, a network has been established to coordinate between the PML-N candidates and their constituencies, with legal aid teams from the PML-N Lawyers Forum, social media teams of the PML-N and any attempt of the rigging would be fully exposed, resisted and reported to the Election Commission, the election observers and the media immediately.
The PML-N Lawyers Forum would be instrumental in ensuring the success of the anti-rigging system since any violation of law would be resisted by lawyers and those involved in rigging would also be prosecuted under the law.
The PML-N is the first party in the history of Pakistan that has launched ARS to counter-rigging of any kind during elections. According to the PML-N leader, Senator Mushahid Hussain Sayed, July 25 election is a "do or die" battle which will set the country's direction as to whether the sanctity of the ballot and supremacy of parliament prevail or Pakistan continues to cling to a status quo.
He claimed that the people of Pakistan already made their choice clear, as is evident from the massive turn out on July 13, in Lahore and huge public rallies being addressed by the PML-N President Mian Shahbaz Sharif of which Gujranwala and Rojhan are the latest examples.
