Former minister of state and central leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Talal Chaudhry said on Monday that level playing field was imperative for fair, free and transparent elections in the country.
Talking to the media in Faisalabad on Monday, he said that fair and free elections could not be ensured without providing level playing field to all contesting political parties.
“Being a democratic political party, we strictly believe in elections, but before elections all parties must be given equal opportunities and treated uniformly by the state institutions,” he demanded. He was critical of the poor performance of the Punjab government and said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had taken over power in Punjab about two-and-a-half months ago, but it did not do anything for welfare of people except for providing an ‘NRO’ to Farah Gogi.
