Promptly reacting to Sunday’s rally by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), politicians of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) said the voter turnout in elections would decide the winner and not the crowd of public meetings.
“Politics and cricket are different things. In cricket ground performance counts, but in politics votes decide the winner,” said PML-N Senator Pervaiz Rashid, who is also the spokesman for the Punjab government. About the rally organised by the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) in Karachi, he said both rallies were of a similar nature and “their director was sitting in the Presidency”.
On his announcement to resign from his Senate seat if Imran Khan’s procession crossed 50,000 people, he said his challenge was about the number of chairs placed at the venue but Imran declined to accept the challenge, which proved that the Minar-e-Pakistan procession did not have seating arrangements for 50,000. He termed Imran’s rally disappointing.
Later, PML-N MNA Khawaja Saad Rafique and Senator Rasheed addressed a joint press conference in Model Town. Rafique said the massive participation in the PML-N’s October 28 rally in Lahore had perturbed the “Zardari gang”. Lahoris had voted against corruption, load shedding, inflation and slavery of foreign powers, he said, adding that people were fed up with Zardari’s democracy.
He said when Zardari’s corruption was highlighted, MQM chief Altaf Hussain was disturbed in London and his party rallied in support of Zardari. He said now the MQM had become a “party for rent” of the PPP. He said the MQM had also rallied on May 12 in support of former president Pervez Musharraf when there was bloodshed in Karachi. He warned Zardari to face criticism or change his ways.
They said Nawaz Sharif was working against the status quo, visiting flood victims in Sindh, distributing food among them and sending doctors, nurses and medicine to help them, but it did not suit Zardari. They said the Sindh government, Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah and the MQM leadership did not bother to visit the affected areas.
LOLZ at Pervez Rashid's clarification..!!!!!! Have some guts Pervez sahab..!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yaar kamal kurtay hein aap. Kursion kee gintee kay peechay Pervez Sb. kursee chor dain?? Naa, that would be the right thing to do so, we shouldn't expect it.
Just one question: Where was Nawaz Sharif (leader of the PML-N) during the rally on the 28th?
Nopes, they won’t.
Ya….. they won’t
I will and will take my family and urge my friends to do the same.
shame on PMLN
They shud this tym n if they dont they will be responsible for the dark future…WAKE UP PAKISTAN

In sha Allah this time khan sb rocks all the parties…
Yet another doubt by the people who always questioned people coming out for him. You will see soon – IA.
Are you kidding me? If they can come out all the way from “Model town” “DHA” to Minar -e- Pakistan. Why won’t they go to the polling stations to caste their votes? I fail to understand this logic.
Let me add something. Most of these supporters were new voters. You can’t change their minds now. They witnessed the beginning of only 1 revolution and that is PTI. PTI is here to stay for at least 1 generation.
These were the supporters who did not even bother to cast their votes any time. Including myself but we were there to support the noble cause … for the future of our kids our country and our nation. Inshallah we will be there for any support anytime.
Nawaz Shareef is working against status quo! very funny. Khawaja Saad sb, he himself is the status quo. Please keep an eye on your leader; if he doesnt become next PM, he may commit suicide 🙂
Lollz….support with out vote.

@Zeeshan Khan: You must be mistaken about some facts here. You have no idea about the assets of the Nawaz brothers. Plus, they have been in power for five terms in punjab and yet no change has been brought about in the system. Think about the thana and the patwaaari system of punjab. Moreover, the education system instead of improving has worsened during the past few decades. And not to forget the state of poverty in punjab. Nothing has been done to eliminate such a system throughout the tenure of the GANJA brothers. Whatever Imran Khan possesses has nothing to do with the money looted from the populace of the country. Try to respect him. IF YOU CANNOT STAND WITH SUMONE WHO HAS BESTOWED THE GIFT OF HOPE TO THE PEOPLE OF PAKISTAN, ATLEAST STOP CREATING OBSTACLES IN THIS UTMOST STEP TOWARDS CHANGE AND SUCESS.
