KARACHI: Former Finance Minister Saleem Mandviwalla has condemned Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) for levelling allegations against the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).

Mandviwala deplored that PTI is trying to make the elections controversial by making allegations against the Election Commission during by-elections. The PPP Senator said levelling allegations against the commission before results are clear evidence of fear of defeat by PTI.

These allegations during the by-elections amount to blackmailing the Election Commission, he added. If Tehreek-e-Insaf has any reservations, it should take the legal course instead of accusations, he concluded.
