Federal Minister for Information, Broadcasting and National Heritage Senator Pervaiz Rashid on Sunday said that the allegations of poll rigging repeated by Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief Imran Khan should be placed on table of dialogue.
Talking to a private TV channel, the minister said that the allegations Khan had been levelling in his speeches for the last 14 months were not tabled before the government’s dialogue committee.
He said that the demands tabled in dialogue process were related to the procedural work of the Election Commission and government could not interfere in the matters of Election Tribunals.
Rashid said that if the working pace of election tribunals were not acceptable for PTI then he should move his suggestions to the Parliament. He said that according to record, the majority of cases were delayed due to non-cooperation of PTI candidates.
The minister said even before the long march, the government had formed parliamentary committee for electoral reforms and a judicial commission was also announced by Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif to probe into allegations of rigging.
