Former Amir Jamaat-i-Islami Lahore and nominated candidate of JI NA 123, Hafiz Salman Butt has said that if the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) does not contest the elections they will lose their support in the masses. He was addressing the press conference along with the JI leaders on Wednesday.
He also announced that he is enjoying the support of PPP, PML (Q) and the workers of PML-N of that constituency. He said that PML-N government led by Chief Minister Punjab Mian Shahbaz Sharif is avoiding to contest the elections.
While criticising the government he said that claims of the good governance of the government is evident from the fact that no senior official is ready to work with the provincial administration. On the question of holding mid term polls he said that both provincial and federal governments should complete their tenures because people have given them mandate for five years.
