ISLAMABAD (92 News) – PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal said that the selected government was imposed through rigging like the Centre in Gilgit-Baltistan.

Addressing a press conference along with Gilgit-Baltistan former chief minister Hafiz Hafeezur Rehman on Thursday, he said that Prime Minister Imran Khan had dispersed national unity and insulted the court orders.

He said that the chief election commissioner had expressed his helplessness in response to their complaints. "The PML-N has started preparing for the general elections. We will launch such long march that the people will forget the long march of Chinese communist revolutionary leader Mao Zedong," he declared.

Hafiz Hafeezur Rehman said that the caretaker chief minister is appointed by the Minister for Kashmir Affairs, the opposition leader and incumbent chief minister. "But this time the rule was violated. Loyalties of the people were changed after appointing 14 caretaker ministers," he alleged.

He accused the Minister for Kashmir Affairs of breaking up the PML-N. "Prior to it, the PTI had no suitable candidates," he added.
