LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N) leader Rana Sanaullah has said that Imran Khan shouldn’t think that because he has managed to hold a big rally, he has become the country’s prime minister.

“No one becomes the country' prime minister through a rally,” Sanaullah said, adding that if the PTI chief was sincere about holding discussions with the government, the premier would be happy to meet Imran at Bani Gala.

Sanaullah further said that if Imran really believed the elections to be rigged, he should call for the dissolution of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa assembly first.

The PML-N leader said Imran should understand that nothing real could materialise from rallies and the PTI chief should sit down for talks with the government.

Sanaullah also said that he was accepting Imran’s challenge, adding that his party could manage to put together a bigger crowd if it had 10 days to do so.

He added that the PTI chief’s demands were unconstitutional.
