Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif has remarked that he sees little hope of fair and transparent general election.
The nation will not allow polls to be rigged at any cost, he said while speaking to the media in London on Sunday.
“The recent events are quite saddening. I am going through a rough phase,” he said, adding that he would’ve returned to Pakistan if his wife was suffering from a minor illness.
“I will return once my wife feels better,” he remarked.
To a question, he said that former interior minister Chaudhry Nisar’s words were “hurtful and saddening”.
Earlier in the day, Nisar had said that Nawaz Sharif, not him, had been showing enmity.
Nisar said that PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif said to him that the party ticket issue was resolved.
Nisar said that he had only asked the party leadership to not go into confrontation with the judiciary and the army.
“When did I speak against the party? When did I not stand with the PML-N?” asked the disgruntled PML-N leader.
