Shehbaz Sharif rejects govt’s proposal to use electronic voting machines
Lahore: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) president and opposition leader in National Assembly (NA) on Sunday has rejected Prime Minister Imran Khan's suggestion of using Electronic Voting Machines (EVMs) in general elections.

In a statement on twitter, the PML-N leader said that the whole world has already rejected the application of electronic voting system and Pakistan Election Commission (ECP) has declared it unworkable.
“Such important national tasks cannot be implemented at the request or order of a specific individual,” he added.

الیکڑانک ووٹنگ کانظام تمام دنیانے مسترد کیا، پاکستانی الیکشن کمشن ناقابل عمل قرار دے چکا ہے؛ ایک فردکی خواہش یا حکم پر ایسے اہم قومی کام انجام نہیں پاتے
He further stated that PML-N had carried out electoral reforms in 2018 via consultation with all political parties, including the opposition Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), adding that “No one objected to these electoral reforms in our time”.
مسلم لیگ (ن) نے 2018 میں مخالف سیاسی جماعت پی ٹی آئی سمیت تمام سیاسی جماعتوں کی مشاورت سے تاریخی انتخابی اصلاحات کی تھیں

ہمارے دور میں ہونے والی ان اصلاحات پر کسی کو اعتراض نہیں تھا
“When the opposition was talking about positive proposals and the economic charter, they were insulted by the slogan of NRO,” PML-N leader stressed.
He lashed out at government saying, “Worry about the ruined economy, inflation and unemployment, instead of electronic voting.”
