Lahore : Nov 13 : Jumping of a large number of electables on Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PMLN) ship in the last few days has strengthened the impression that Nawaz Sharif ‘s return to Pakistan last month was a part of his deal with the Establishment.
Nawaz Sharif had returned to Pakistan in October last after passing around four years in the United Kingdom and his return from self -exile had invited severe criticism from his political opponents. The Pakistan People Party (PPP), which was a part of the government that ruled the country for 16 months following dismissal of Pakistan Tehreek- e – Insaf (PTI) government in 2022, is repeatedly claiming that Nawaz ‘s return to Pakistan last month was a part of PMLN supremo ‘s deal with the Establishment.
PPP and PTI are labelling Nawaz Sharif as New Darling ” Nia Ladla”. The PMLN is not responding to PPP’s criticism and now joining of a large number of electables in PMLN to contest next elections has apparently seconded PPP’s claims regarding alleged Nawaz Sharif’s deal with the Establishment. So far more than one dozen electables from Punjab and other provinces have joined PMLN and they are ready to contest the next general elections on PMLN tickets .
On Monday , Sardar Channu Khan an electable from Chakwal joined PMLN . Sardar Channu Khan had contested the last election in 2018 for NA 64 Chakwal on PTI ticket. Nawaz Sharif has opened- up his arms to welcome the electables in his party and to achieve the target of bringing every electable in his party he is rushing to Balochistan on Tuesday (today) . By bringing electables from Balochistan into PMLN folds ,Nawaz Sharif would like to give an impression to the real decision -makers that their decision to pick him as next head of government was 100 % right.
In meetings with the electables , Nawaz Sharif himself is giving the impression that his party is going to make the next government with 2/3 majority. In the past PMLN second tier leadership had claimed publicly that Nawaz Sharif will return to Pakistan once risk reduces to zero.
