Pakistan People’s Party leader Sharjeel Inam Memon on Friday challenged the political parties including GDA, that are protesting against alleged rigging in elections, to contest election against him in his constituency.
The PPP leader, who secured victory in PS-61 with 63,079 votes, challenged the political parties including Grand Democratic Alliance, Jamat-e-Islami and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-F which are protesting against alleged rigging in elections.
Addressing a press conference, Sharjeel Memon said that the entire Sindh gave its mandate to the PPP and the party’s opponents faced a humiliating defeat in the February 8 elections. He also questioned the alliance’s leaders to name a single district in which their candidates won the electoral contest. Memon challenged the heads of the protesting parties to contest re-election from his constituency.
“Our leadership ordered us to refrain from responding to harsh statements in the same tone. However, we would not keep silent if false allegations are hurled against the PPP leadership,” he warned.
