ATTOCK: The PML-N demands free and fair elections, the party’s president Shahbaz Sharif said at a public gathering in Pindigheb on Thursday.

He said all politicians are facing problems other than the ‘ladla’. He said election day will still be victory day for PML-N.

He said the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf had objected to the metro bus and had started their own similar project which costs more than the Punjab metro and that the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa high court had said so. He said the PML-N government had provided free healthcare, medicines, education and books across Punjab and that the people of KP had also benefitted from these.

“The people of KP are our brothers and were not provided with healthcare facilities by Imran Khan,” Shahbaz Sharif said.

The former Punjab chief minister said the dollar had also risen since his party’s government had ended.

Shahbaz Sharif promised to provide jobs and sui gas connections in the district.

PML-N candidates vowed to fight for the party and said the party gave the people electricity, employment, education, the metro bus, the Hazara Expressway, motorway, CPEC and atomic power.
