LAHORE: (Dunya News) – MNA elect from NA-122 Sardar Ayaz Sadiq has on Tuesday invited Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Imran Khan to leave his ego behind and cooperate with the government for the progress of the country. Ayaz said that he defeated PTI, Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT) and Pakistan Muslim League – Quaid (PML-Q). “I had told everyone three weeks back that Imran wouldn’t accept the result”, said the Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) leader, reported Dunya News.
Talking to media in Lahore, Ayaz Sadiq said that his victory proved the allegation of 53,000 fake votes as wrong. He said that it was for the first time in Pakistan’s history that a Speaker won 2 elections within 2 and half years. He said that he defeated the alliance of PTI, PAT, PML-Q and Jamaat Islami (JI).
Advising Imran Khan to leave his ego behind, Ayaz Sadiq asked him not to hurl derogatory remarks at political leaders.
“PP-147 result is good but NA-122 is wrong. Why this hypocrisy?” questioned Ayaz Sadiq. He said that the ‘politics of rigging and sit-ins’ will not help investment to come into Pakistan.
Earlier, PTI s losing candidate from NA-122 Abdul Aleem Khan had requested recount of votes but the Returning Officer (RO) declined, saying that it was not his authority to order vote recount.
Imran Khan had also tweeted that PTI was investigating the number of votes thrown out of NA-122 at the last minute.
A 6-member committee of PTI leaders has also been set up in order to investigate the matter and PTI Punjab Organizer Chaudhry Muhammad Sarwar has issued a notification in this regard as well.
The committee will be headed by Shoaib Siddiqui and comprise of MPA from PP-148 Mian Aslam Iqbal, Anees Ali HashmiAdvocate, Mehar Wajid, Mehar Fayyaz and Khurram Qureshi.
