Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar on Tuesday said that the government is ready to contest Senate elections through open as well as secret ballot method, expressing his hope that the PTI will easily win its required seats in the province.

“The Opposition will be jaw dropped by the result of Senate elections as all the opposition plans are only gimmicks to survive in the politics.”

Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar was talking to party delegations at Governor’s House on Tuesday.

Ch Sarwar said that the opposition parties will get several surprises during elections of upper house of parliament and all plans of opposition are just to stay active in politics. The governor o said that result of Senate elections will be in favor of PTI and its allies. He also said that the government will accept apex court’s verdict on presidential reference.

The Punjab governor said that PTI is ready to contest the Senate elections through both open and secret balloting. The Punjab governor said that the opposition wants to settle every matter as per its desire, not according to the law, adding he said that the government wants supremacy of the constitution in the country.

PTI is ready to contest the Senate elections through both the Open and Secret ballot and it will respect the court’s decision regarding the Senate election. He said that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is ready for Senate elections. PTI members of National and Provincial Assemblies are united. The opposition, and not the government, should be worried about the Senate elections.

The PTI will easily win desired Senate seats from Punjab too and the result of Senate elections on March 3 will be in favour of the government and its allies and the opposition will face failure. In a statement, Punjab Governor Chaudhry Sarwar strongly condemned the implementation of the Juvenile Justice Act in Indian Illegally Occupied Kashmir and said that under this draconian law, parents of children protesting peacefully for their freedom could face up to seven years imprisonment and a fine of Rs 500,000. This is a blatant violation of basic Human Rights, he added.

Chaudhry Sarwar said that ever since Narendra Modi has come to power in India, atrocities against Kashmiris and Muslims living in India have heightened. India should know that no matter how much they oppress the innocent Kashmiris they will never back down from their struggle for freedom and Kashmiris will be free from Indian clutches very soon.
