KARACHI: Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) chief Mustafa Kamal on Monday said that contesting the upcoming polls is a victory in itself for his party.

“Our victory is that we are contesting the upcoming election,” Kamal said while addressing the media in Karachi.

The former Karachi mayor further said, “Earlier we used to be asked how we will step out of our houses and today we are questioned about how we will win the election.”

Kamal also expressed hope that his party will win the general election scheduled for July 25.

“God willing we will win,” he said.

The PSP leader further upheld, “The election has nothing to do with the recent population census.”

Stating that as per National Database Registration Authority (NADRA) records the population of Karachi in 2013 was 21.4 million, Kamal asked, “How is the population of the metropolis lesser in 2018?”

He further alleged, “The urban population of Sindh was made to appear less during the census.”

Claiming that he filed a petition against the result of the recent population census, Kamal said, “The chief justice of Pakistan heard my arguments and fixed September 10 as the date for the hearing of the case.”
