LAHORE (92 News) - PTI chairman Imran Khan has said that after getting reports on the latest LG elections in Sindh, it is apparent that the PPP has no commitment to fair and free elections.

In a message on his Twitter handle, he said: "Instead it (PPP) uses force, blackmail, police harassment and money to get votes. Now also clear why the ECP, cabal of crooks and their handlers sabotaged electronic voting machines (EVMs)."

Imran Khan said that EVMs allow for transparency and immediate results so prevent rigging – engineering of results. "Right now results of the LG elections which should have come out within a few hours at most, were coming out in a staggering delay some for days, allowing for massive foul play.

"If this is the sort of elections the ECP, the state and the PDM want then the stability that elections are meant to bring will not happen. Instead such manipulated elections will only cause more agitation, polarisation and anarchy."
