Ruling out the possibility of forming a coalition government, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif Thursday urged voters to give him a clear majority in the National Assembly.
The three-time prime minister made these comments today after casting his vote in the provincial capital today along with his daughter and party’s Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz.
He was accompanied by Istehkam-i-Pakistan Party (IPP) leader Awn Chaudhry.
Nawaz, who is contesting from NA-130, urged the masses to come out and vote as the country needs a one-party majority to bring stability.
“We rendered sacrifices to witness the day where we are today. We have to end this culture of abuse and indecency.”
When asked to comment on the formation of a government after the elections and what would be his priority, Nawaz said a party must get the majority to rule independently without dependence on others.
“For God’s sake! Don’t talk about a coalition government. One-party majority is crucial for the country.”
Taking a jibe indirectly at his rival Imran Khan’s party, he said the country needs a healing touch.
He also highlighted the sacrifices of party leaders including Shehbaz Sharif, Maryam Nawaz, and Hamza Shehbaz, saying they also spent time in jail.
