Imran should reduce harshness towards establishment, Nawaz Sharif: Fawad

Islamabad: Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP) leader and former Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry Tuesday advised Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) that he needs to reduce harshness towards establishment and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif before the elections.

Speaking to media outside Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), Fawad Chaudhry questioned that how will we move forward in such harsh environment because the situation is not normal at the moment, therefore it is more important than the election to bring the country's situation back to normal.

He stated: “The differences and bitterness between the PTI chairman and the establishment should be dealt with”.

The former minister continued to say that there is no environment for democracy and elections in Pakistan. It should be decided that how Pakistan will be normalize. Therefore before elections, a democratic charter should be formed that should reduce the distance between Chairman PTI, establishment and Nawaz Sharif.

Fawad Chaudhry added that the government will be formed with the consensus of Shahbaz Sharif and Raja Riaz and they will hold elections.

We are not able to talk about the problems of Pakistan. In the crippling situation, whether Pakistan goes for the election or not is irrelevant, the bitterness has to end first, he stated.
