LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) leader Hamza Shahbaz has demanded to constitute a parliamentary commission to investigate the alleged rigging in General Elections 2018.
While talking to media outside Punjab Assembly, Hamza asserted that he took oath as Member of Provincial Assembly (MPA) just for the continuity of democracy.
Despite being the largest party in the House, PML-N has not given the opportunity to form the government, that is why, he added, the party took part in today’s elections with a heavy heart.
