Former Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) president Javed Hashmi on Tuesday said he would “definitely win” the upcoming by-elections in NA-149 with the support of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
“I am indebted to the PML-N. I would like to die with them and to be buried in their coffin because it is my family party,” Hashmi told reporters at a press conference. Hashmi said he was honoured to have gained the PML-N’s support and grateful that they did not file a candidate against him in the upcoming polls.
He also said that the PML-N had organised 4,000 corner meetings in the last two weeks in Multan with their youth force working efficiently in Multan.
“This has extraordinarily strengthened me in the whole constituency, and my corner meetings will also give a brilliant boost to the overall voter turnout in the elections,” he said.
“My victory will be the victory of democracy, and this is inevitable in the by-elections in Multan,” he said, adding that he wants to be voted on the basis of merit.
Further, he spoke about the PTI rally held in Multan, in which at least seven people died in a stampede. “The political gathering in Multan was aimed to create unrest in the city, and I will reveal the real figures behind the tragic incident.”
Meanwhile, Raja Hussain Azad, an independent candidate in the constituency, stepped down in favour of Hashmi and announced his support for him.
No matter what, he will never be able to wash the stigma of betrayal of his party and leader at the crucial time.
Hashmi is not baaghi or daaghi, he is in fact a 'demaaghi'! He will be punished by people of Multan.
