00:00 Welcome back, you are watching Khususi Transmission.

00:08 A regional election is taking place across the country.

00:10 There are 21 constituencies, including the National Assembly and the Subahi Assembly.

00:14 We are sharing the results with you.

00:18 We are now back with Chakwal.

00:21 The PPP is 22.

00:22 The winning seat of PMLN, Sardar Ghulam Abbas has left it.

00:27 The main competition is between the Noon League and the Sunni Taat Council,

00:33 which is run by Nisar Ahmed, a candidate for PTI.

00:36 Ali, have you made any progress so far?

00:41 If we know the results, when will they be consolidated?

00:49 According to the people we spoke to, 18 polling stations have received the results.

01:00 The Noon League has received 6177 votes, while the Sunni Taat Council has received 4977 votes.

01:12 We have not been able to consolidate the results because of the internet connection issues.

01:23 We came to the RO office to find out the results and the winning candidates.

01:32 But the RO office has been shut down and the media is not allowed to broadcast.

01:38 When we were coming from Talagang to Chakwal, the main road was also closed.

01:47 The road to Chakwal is also closed.

01:52 The RO office is not accessible.

01:54 There is no internet service here.

01:56 You can contact people through mobile phones.

01:58 We are contacting people from different areas.

02:03 We have received the results of 18 polling stations.

02:08 The results should have been more because these are small areas.

02:12 The people who win the elections bring the results.

02:18 The results should have been more.

02:20 The results are less.

02:22 The media is completely shut down at the RO office.

02:27 We are not allowed to go there.

02:34 We will wait for the administration to give us the results.

02:40 Mr. Nazeer Bhatti, before we talk about the elections in Lahore, please tell us about the campaigning.

02:46 Mr. Tarik Khan has campaigned a little.

02:49 Mr. Marwat has also campaigned a little.

02:52 Has PM LN campaigned actively or is it based on the progress of Mariam Nawaz?

03:05 As far as the election campaign is concerned, the political situation is very bad.

03:14 The MPs and political parties are mostly involved in the elections.

03:22 The local leadership is not involved in the elections.

03:36 Neither is the Null League nor is the Sunnitat Council.

03:40 The Sunnitat Council was allowed to hold a meeting on the last day.

03:44 Mr. Marwat has said that he came here and gave a speech.

03:48 He was also given a notice by the DCU for a press conference.

03:53 So, there was no such campaign.

03:56 On the last day, the Pakistan Party and the Muslim League's joint candidate, Shoaib Siddiqui,

04:05 took out a rally and the rally was a little bit of a walk away.

04:11 In Lahore, the situation is still the same.

04:15 There is a competition between the Sunnites and the PTA.

04:18 But there is very little chance that it can be challenged.

04:24 They have campaigned on a local level.

04:30 The Sunnites are in a very good position to win.

04:36 But the Sunnites are in a very bad position to win.

04:44 The situation in the RO offices is not good for the media.

04:51 Thank you very much.

04:54 Our reporters have informed us about the situation.

04:58 We will share the results with you as soon as they are available.

05:01 We are waiting for the results to be collected and collected.

05:06 We will wait for the results to be collected and collected.

05:17 Mr. Khabar, we can see that there are many seats that the Sharif family has kept on their own.

05:23 There are four seats in which Hamza Shahbaz has one seat,

05:28 two seats are left by Mr. Shahbaz and one by Mrs. Mariam Nawaz.

05:33 In the last two and a half months, we have seen that there is a lot of debate and a lot of different thinking in the PMLN.

05:42 There is a lot of talk about Mr. Mian Javed Latif, Mr. Nawaz Sharif was made PM and Mr. Shahbaz Sharif was made PM.

05:50 We will get to know about the PMLN voters' opinion about the election results.

05:55 Has the confusion of the last two and a half months confused them or is it clear?

06:00 We can discuss this election from two or three perspectives.

06:06 One is that the Punjab has a two-third majority of Pakistan Muslim minority.

06:11 The result of which we are waiting for is that what perception will be built?

06:20 Is the Pakistan Muslim League now ruling in Punjab, especially Mrs. Mariam,

06:25 the Sasi Roti scheme, they have 20,000-22,000 motorbikes for the youth.

06:30 And you can see the actors, left, right, front, back, they are all showing themselves as active administrators.

06:36 And they are telling people that I have come to serve you.

06:41 On the other hand, the Sunni Council said that we have been defeated by Farm 47, so we will reassert our position.

06:51 Now the biggest problem here is that people have voted for a political party or not.

06:58 The biggest question mark that is raised on that is the election commission, which is very respectable for us.

07:07 The election commission said that before the 24th, 8th February election,

07:14 do not worry, we will keep all the results in front of you at 10 pm, at the max, till 2 pm.

07:18 After that, whatever happened, it is part of the history.

07:21 Now this was only for 21 years.

07:23 And now who is raising questions? We are not saying that anyone has voted for it or not.

07:29 Now the reporters on ground are saying that we are not getting the results.

07:35 But at the time, Farm 45 was very light, tell people that so many polling stations,

07:40 like Gujarat has come, we are seeing that the results of some other elections are coming very quickly.

07:45 Now here, I think that the role of the election commission, frankly speaking,

07:51 I don't understand why they are doing this.

07:54 That unnecessarily, you have done a simple exercise.

07:59 I agree that on the day of the general election, there was a lot of exercise, there were reports,

08:03 God forbid, there could have been a law and order issue in the country, you closed the internet,

08:08 you closed the cellular servers, even today, you have done something with such issues.

08:15 For God's sake, give the results.

08:17 Now if you don't give the results on time in Lahore, then what will be the result?

08:20 Now this debate should have been on this point, which is your fundamental question.

08:26 That what will be the result of this, what will be known from it,

08:30 people's opinion will be known, how people are perceiving Marjum Sahiba,

08:36 how people are perceiving the Sunni Hand Council's statement.

08:39 But we are on the other side, our reporters are saying that a water cannon has been erected there,

08:43 the media has been removed, they are not telling us, and this is on this.

08:47 And then obviously, when the result will not come on time, people will raise questions on it.

08:52 So I think we can appeal to the election commission.

08:55 I have heard that our chief election commissioner had gone to Brazil.

08:57 If you talk to the people of PMLN, because when there is a discussion,

09:01 they are very emotionally invested in this election.

09:04 Because according to them, the results of these 5-6 sessions, especially in Lahore,

09:08 which is the core of PMLN, depend on the political strategy.

09:14 Apart from this, there are some other sessions, like Surki, Narowal,

09:19 PMLN wants to recover the shock it has received in Punjab in the last election.

09:25 So this election is important for them, but obviously, if you talk to them,

09:30 they say that the governments go out of their way.

09:34 But this election, these are winning sessions.

09:37 All of this, winning is…

09:39 Look, if I were Maryam Nawaz Sharif, if I were the chief minister in her place,

09:45 I would have said free and fair to Sunitha Hath Council,

09:49 tell me where you want to hold the election, at what place.

09:53 I would have made all the arrangements there,

09:55 at Minar-e-Pakistan, Garhishaho, Samnabad, Dungi Ground,

10:02 whatever place you want, in Kusur, come and hold the session.

10:06 I would have given them a free and fair election run.

10:09 After that, I would have ensured, being the administrator of the province,

10:13 that there would be no problem in my presence.

10:19 Do you remember, when there was a problem in Daska,

10:22 I said that if after 10 pm…

10:23 You ran a very bad campaign for PM Modi.

10:25 If the results didn't come, then…

10:26 Because of her single-handedly campaign, the election…

10:29 People supported her.

10:30 So, in my opinion, she should have come as an administrator,

10:35 she should have met the Election Commissioners.

10:37 I said, whatever happens on 8th February,

10:40 the election tribunal will continue to work on it.

10:43 But now, because I will be the one who will be affected,

10:45 if the result of the election in Lahore is delayed,

10:48 then as the Chief Minister, I will be asked questions.

10:51 Like the administration, the DCOs, the police, everyone is present there.

10:56 So, I think it would reflect poorly on the Election Commission

11:01 and the Government of Punjab,

11:04 that if the results are coming from other places,

11:07 why are the results not coming from Lahore?

11:09 What is happening in Gujarat?

11:11 This is very interesting for me.

11:12 But in Gujarat…

11:13 Where there is a difference between the Musa-e-Ilahi,

11:15 the uncle versus the nephew.

11:17 Regardless of the on-ground situation,

11:22 my comment on this is that,

11:25 the way the election was conducted,

11:29 the question marks were there,

11:30 now Saleh and his other brother,

11:32 both brothers have got ministries in the federal level.

11:37 So, on-ground, they have resources.

11:40 And you know, for example,

11:42 a village councilor knows that there is a federal government and a Punjab government.

11:48 And they are here to say for the next 3 years, 4 years, 5 years,

11:51 however long it takes.

11:53 So, maybe people have…

11:55 The absence is there.

11:58 Mr. Parvez Lai is inside,

12:01 Mr. Munas is outside,

12:03 they have tried.

12:04 But on-ground…

12:06 Munas has his own ministries in Lahore.

12:08 But the complaints that are coming from him,

12:12 the campaign that was conducted by Munas Lai's mother and his aunt,

12:17 the complaints that are coming,

12:19 obviously, there should be an on-ground investigation on what happened and what didn't.

12:24 But I feel that,

12:26 because they have a government,

12:28 the Punjab government,

12:29 and they have a ministry in it,

12:30 that might have influence.

12:32 I think we should take a break here.

12:34 After the break, we will try to,

12:35 along with that,

12:38 take the views of the various political parties.

12:40 We will contact them,

12:41 about the election trend,

12:44 their concerns regarding polling,

12:46 and also the results that are coming out.

12:47 We will decipher them as well.

12:48 Stay with us after the break.

12:49 Welcome back, you are watching this special transmission,

12:55 Zimni Intikhab,

12:56 which is gathering the results of the national and provincial assemblies

12:59 on 21 systems across the country,

13:01 and we are sharing them with you.

13:04 But we also have to see the voting trend.

13:06 The political parties,

13:08 obviously,

13:09 have an inward approach as well,

13:13 where they are standing after every election.

13:16 So, regarding this election,

13:18 I think it is important to take the views of the political parties.

13:21 We have with us,

13:22 PMLN's Bilal Kiani.

13:23 Thank you very much, Mr. Kiani,

13:24 for joining us.

13:25 First things first,

13:26 how important is this Zimni Intikhab?

13:29 If I ask you about PMLN,

13:31 that a Zimni Intikhab is being held a few months after the general election,

13:36 especially Lahore,

13:37 which is an important place,

13:38 where you have 3-4 seats from there,

13:40 and some important seats from Central Punjab.

13:42 So, what are your thoughts on the importance of this election in the banks of PMLN?

13:48 Bismillah-e-Akbar-e-Imrani Sahiba,

13:50 thank you for having me on this transmission.

13:52 Yes,

13:53 as a political party,

13:55 and as a main political party in Pakistan,

13:58 every election is important for us.

14:01 But these seats that you have mentioned,

14:04 whether they are in Lahore, Kasur, Sheikhupura, or Narowal,

14:09 all of them definitely have a special significance.

14:13 These are the seats from where we win in the elections on 8th February,

14:17 and these seats have been vacated

14:20 because some of our candidates left 2 seats,

14:23 or they left the seats of the Subais,

14:25 or the National Assembly.

14:27 So, these are the seats that we win.

14:29 So, it is definitely important for us

14:31 that we claim these seats again in the elections,

14:35 and win these seats again.

14:37 And you can see,

14:39 the results that are coming,

14:41 which we have also followed,

14:43 which are also being broadcast in the media,

14:45 in almost all of these seats,

14:47 the Muslim League is still ahead,

14:50 which is confirming the victory on 8th February.

14:54 So, in your election cell,

14:57 if I ask you how comfortably you claim,

15:00 that how many seats are being won by PM LN comfortably,

15:03 what will be the figure?

15:05 Yes, honestly, I am not really too,

15:09 because I am not involved in that exercise.

15:12 That is why, I have also,

15:14 the feedback that we have received from some candidates,

15:18 that is from my conversations with some colleagues,

15:21 otherwise, the media that we follow,

15:24 across all channels, if you see,

15:26 the majority of the circles,

15:28 where we were winning,

15:30 there are more heavy seats,

15:33 and some are less.

15:35 But more or less, we are ahead in all the places.

15:38 And we hope that in the same way,

15:41 the final result will also come in these seats.

15:43 In comparison to the general election,

15:45 this election was a small exercise,

15:47 but a significant one,

15:49 and the government had to shut down the internet.

15:51 Especially, if we talk about the big cities,

15:54 what is the reason?

15:56 There were only a few seats,

15:58 and if it was a security issue,

16:00 it was also easy to manage,

16:02 as compared to the general elections.

16:04 Shutting down the internet is a common practice.

16:06 Why did it happen?

16:08 Yes, honestly,

16:10 in the security issues,

16:12 shutting down the mobile service,

16:14 you know, in our country,

16:16 there has been a debate for two decades,

16:18 whether it is a Jalsa Jalus,

16:20 or a Muharram,

16:22 or a foreign delegation visit,

16:24 or a cricket match, or elections.

16:26 Now, if this becomes a norm,

16:28 then we all want that our infrastructure

16:30 and security arrangements

16:32 should be on the same level,

16:34 as in other countries,

16:36 so that there is no need for it.

16:38 But unfortunately,

16:40 security is still important,

16:42 and the interior ministry

16:44 or the state system decides on these things.

16:46 Secondly, unfortunately,

16:48 as you saw today,

16:50 in Zafarwal,

16:52 our worker,

16:54 Ahmed Iqbal,

16:56 who fought for the election,

16:58 was killed.

17:00 And there have been similar incidents today.

17:02 Some news from PTI,

17:04 I am talking about what has been reported in the media,

17:06 that there were explosions,

17:08 and there were attacks,

17:10 and especially,

17:12 this is a very sad incident.

17:14 I saw in the media,

17:16 that they have been arrested,

17:18 the Mullahs,

17:20 in the market.

17:22 It is a violent crime,

17:24 the law should take action.

17:26 But when the internet is shut down,

17:28 you can understand better,

17:30 because in the constituency elections,

17:32 you personally fight for elections,

17:34 not only do voters have a problem in coming,

17:36 when the communication is cut,

17:38 then in the entire election process,

17:40 all kinds of voters are discouraged.

17:42 Is this a matter of concern?

17:44 If your voter is confused,

17:46 then...

17:48 Yes, of course,

17:50 unfortunately,

17:52 I have presented a background,

17:54 how this is done with security arrangements,

17:56 which is unfortunate,

17:58 but you are right,

18:00 that for me as a candidate,

18:02 or for any candidate,

18:04 it is a problem,

18:06 because you have to contact

18:08 your polling stations,

18:10 your polling agents,

18:12 your team,

18:14 you have to convey things,

18:16 if there is an issue,

18:18 if there is a voter list issue,

18:20 then it is definitely a difficulty,

18:22 and an inconvenience.

18:24 But unfortunately,

18:26 at the end of the day,

18:28 this decision is made by the security,

18:30 and the election commission,

18:32 primarily, obviously,

18:34 is its ambit,

18:36 so as a result,

18:38 whether it is elections,

18:40 or processions,

18:42 or foreign delegation visits,

18:44 or cricket matches,

18:46 we do not need to switch off

18:48 our mobile phones,

18:50 and put up signs to block the roads,

18:52 but unfortunately,

18:54 we are not at that stage yet.

18:56 Okay, Mr. Kaini,

18:58 I am talking about Khabar Ghuman,

19:00 before the elections of February 2024,

19:02 the KTEC was in power,

19:04 and all the responsibilities were

19:06 on the PM, and all the administrative matters,

19:08 now, obviously, in Punjab,

19:10 you are sitting with a heavy majority,

19:12 2/3rd,

19:14 and in Lahore, you saw the way

19:16 the campaign was carried out,

19:18 and now we know that the results are not being received there,

19:20 so don't you think that,

19:22 it would reflect very poorly

19:24 on the part of PM alone,

19:26 that you should have,

19:28 I think, moved forward and done such arrangements,

19:30 along with the election commission,

19:32 that, O Allah, we are a democratic party,

19:34 and this democratic exercise that is going to take place,

19:36 we would like to give people

19:38 a chance to come out,

19:40 and vote for whichever political party they want to vote for,

19:42 and at the end of the day,

19:44 like now, there are questions and questions,

19:46 that, O Allah,

19:48 because this happened,

19:50 there were security issues,

19:52 the police did this,

19:54 so this is a bit unnecessary,

19:56 and PM should have been proactive

19:58 in this regard.

20:00 Yes, Mr. Ghuman,

20:02 I would like to make a request,

20:04 that all the news that I have followed today,

20:06 relatively speaking,

20:08 our political environment and elections,

20:10 if we look at it from that perspective,

20:12 I have not seen

20:14 many issues like that,

20:16 where you have seen,

20:18 the most sad incident is that,

20:20 where the workers of Pakistan's

20:22 Muslim League were killed.

20:24 But at the same time, you have seen,

20:26 that at one place, for example,

20:28 the Muslim League council said,

20:30 that on form 45,

20:32 the returning or the presiding officer

20:34 had already signed it.

20:36 So later we found out,

20:38 that he had to sign it,

20:40 and the council's polling agency was also involved.

20:42 So, it should not have happened.

20:44 The election commission has said,

20:46 that they have seen such one-offs,

20:48 but largely, no such issues have come up.

20:50 You are right,

20:52 everyone's collective effort is this,

20:54 that as smoothly

20:56 and openly as possible,

20:58 there should be a collective effort.

21:00 And today, if you see,

21:02 apart from a few instances,

21:04 no major issues have come up.

21:06 To the extent that they do,

21:08 specific issues have come up

21:10 from certain circles,

21:12 specific polling stations,

21:14 the media has also raised them,

21:16 I believe the election commission

21:18 has also noticed them.

21:20 But, at the end of the day,

21:22 I would like to say,

21:24 that the governments do make arrangements

21:26 and at the end of the day,

21:28 the presiding officers and the entire campaign,

21:30 is under the election commission's

21:32 control.

21:34 And today, I would like to say again,

21:36 that largely, relatively speaking,

21:38 in the context of our elections,

21:40 if you look at it from that perspective,

21:42 it has been largely peaceful,

21:44 and I don't think there have been any major complaints.

21:46 And are you satisfied with the speed

21:48 of the results?

21:50 Because, there are main cities,

21:52 elections are held in a few places,

21:54 are the results coming as fast as you were expecting?

21:56 Yes, Maria, honestly,

21:58 I don't want to claim anything,

22:00 but I have seen the results on TV,

22:02 I don't know if there is any media reporting

22:04 on certain places or not,

22:06 but to be very honest,

22:08 I will have to call some candidates

22:10 who are contesting our elections,

22:12 and talk to them,

22:14 so that I can get a better idea

22:16 of the situation.

22:18 Okay, last question,

22:20 because in the last election,

22:22 when we saw that in May 8,

22:24 there was a visible opinion,

22:26 a very clear opinion in the PMLN,

22:28 that a lot of your voters

22:30 could not even come out in that large number.

22:32 This time, have you managed

22:34 the angry voters to some extent?

22:36 Do you think the election campaign

22:38 should have been done in the way

22:40 the PMLN has achieved all its targets?

22:42 Yes, look,

22:44 the candidates who are contesting our elections,

22:46 this time, the context was that,

22:48 largely, in Punjab,

22:50 the seats were the ones

22:52 that we had won before.

22:54 So, definitely, the voters here,

22:56 no matter how scared they were in the last election,

22:58 they had expressed confidence in our party

23:00 and our candidates,

23:02 and our candidates were moving forward

23:04 with the same momentum.

23:06 They have definitely,

23:08 the candidates who got more tickets

23:10 in our by-election,

23:12 they have done their entire campaign.

23:14 In this campaign, you have seen that

23:16 because the elected members are present,

23:18 you don't see a lot of celebration.

23:20 But, definitely, the on-the-ground,

23:22 door-to-door activity, polling station-wise,

23:24 union council-wise, ward-wise,

23:26 our candidates have thoroughly

23:28 carried out.

23:30 Looking at the political situation

23:32 of their area and the local groups,

23:34 and looking at the demands

23:36 of the electorate,

23:38 they have definitely

23:40 put in an effort.

23:42 And the results that are being seen,

23:44 the results of the effort are being seen.

23:46 Thank you very much.

23:48 We have with us PM LN, Bilal Kiani.

23:50 Sam Raja is with us on the telephone line.

23:52 Throughout, I was observing,

23:54 wherever there were elections taking place,

23:56 they were present in the constituencies.

23:58 Salam Salman.

24:00 Yes, Salam.

24:02 Overall, especially on the day of the election,

24:04 we were talking to PM LN,

24:06 he said that

24:08 he is very comfortable

24:10 with the seats that he has won.

24:12 In your opinion, which seats

24:14 are still strong?

24:16 In your opinion, which seats

24:18 can you comfortably claim

24:20 that we have a strong hand here?

24:22 Look, I cannot say anything about this.

24:24 But one thing

24:26 which is absolutely clear,

24:28 that the internet was shut down again today.

24:30 There is no reasonable justification for this.

24:32 There is no security issue

24:34 that you shut down the internet

24:36 of the entire city for a local election.

24:38 There is only one reason

24:40 for shutting down the internet,

24:42 that is, the presiding officers

24:44 from the local election

24:46 are not able to send

24:48 the form 45 to the election commission

24:50 via EMS or the internet.

24:52 And the polling agents

24:54 are also not able to send

24:56 their candidate

24:58 and the observers to the election commission.

25:00 This is a very disturbing situation.

25:02 And this was re-captured

25:04 on 8th February.

25:06 After that,

25:08 I was with the people

25:10 of the NA119

25:12 office of the RO.

25:14 It was made in the Engineering University.

25:16 We were not allowed to go inside.

25:18 The candidates were not allowed to go inside.

25:20 Their election agents

25:22 were not allowed to go inside.

25:24 But when this is done,

25:26 it has only one purpose.

25:28 To take the form 45

25:30 from the presiding officers

25:32 in the dark and to do the same

25:34 as was done on 8th and 9th February.

25:36 We have a complete doubt

25:38 that this will be done.

25:40 Will the form 45 be received?

25:42 Will the form 45 be changed?

25:44 I don't understand.

25:46 If the election commission

25:48 really wants to conduct

25:50 a transparent election,

25:52 why was the internet

25:54 shut down?

25:56 And now the ban

25:58 has been put in the RO's office.

26:00 But the law says that the candidate

26:02 and his election agents have the right

26:04 to receive the form 45

26:06 in their presence.

26:08 And the form 47

26:10 should be given in their presence.

26:12 If you don't let this happen,

26:14 the entire election

26:16 loses its credibility.

26:18 Even if the polling is fine throughout the day,

26:20 but in the evening,

26:22 a big question mark is created.

26:24 And the election

26:26 loses its credibility.

26:28 You are talking about the polling day.

26:30 How is the overall turnout?

26:32 Are you satisfied that

26:34 the turnout is as high as you expected?

26:36 The turnout is less in the

26:38 local elections.

26:40 And the second thing is that

26:42 the reason for the 8th and 9th February

26:44 was to tell the voters

26:46 that there is no purpose

26:48 or result of their vote.

26:50 But despite this,

26:52 I think the voters have come out.

26:54 And the voters have tried their best

26:56 to assert their right.

26:58 And the voters have tried their best

27:00 to assert their right.

27:02 And the voters have tried their best

27:04 to assert their right.

27:06 If a result is given by force,

27:08 then this matter will come to the public court.

27:10 And it will go to the other courts.

27:12 But I think it is a big question

27:14 that the internet ban

27:16 and the candidates and election agents

27:18 should not be allowed

27:20 to be there during the consolidation

27:22 of form 45

27:24 and the formation of form 47.

27:26 These are the big questions

27:28 that we should pay attention to.

27:30 Mr. Rai, the campaign

27:32 that took place in Lahore

27:34 for the by-elections,

27:36 our reporters were also talking

27:38 about the leadership of the Sunni

27:40 Tahaat Council

27:42 not being present there.

27:44 We saw the situation

27:46 where the elections are taking place.

27:48 Is there a special reason for this?

27:50 Look, this happened again.

27:52 I myself went to a lot of

27:54 coroner meetings.

27:56 And in my presence,

27:58 the police were raided.

28:00 People were kidnapped,

28:02 beaten, the banners were torn.

28:04 The atmosphere of fear

28:06 was maintained.

28:08 So after this atmosphere of fear,

28:10 to say that no candidate

28:12 could campaign in the way

28:14 you think it should have been,

28:16 you have to keep that atmosphere

28:18 of fear in front.

28:20 But despite this, I think

28:22 our candidates have campaigned

28:24 in an organized manner.

28:26 And people know,

28:28 the biggest issue is

28:30 who is the candidate

28:32 and what is his election sign.

28:34 This has been reported to people

28:36 in a timely manner.

28:38 The question is, Mr. Marwat

28:40 gets up from KP, Peshawar,

28:42 and goes to Lahore.

28:44 And Mr. Amad Azhar,

28:46 you have heard that he has

28:48 been bailed from Peshawar High Court.

28:50 He is not seen on the ground.

28:52 We saw a few small demonstrations

28:54 in Lahore.

28:56 People are asking questions

28:58 about Mr. Amad Azhar's absence

29:00 on the ground.

29:02 What are his threats

29:04 in this regard,

29:06 that he will be arrested?

29:08 He understands better.

29:10 But even before 8th February,

29:12 we were not allowed

29:14 to do such a campaign.

29:16 The public's decision is there.

29:18 The real issue was that

29:20 the public should know

29:22 who the candidate is

29:24 and what is his election sign.

29:26 Mr. Amad Azhar's absence

29:28 on the ground

29:30 may be important,

29:32 but it is not as important

29:34 as you are pointing out.

29:36 We, the local people,

29:38 will remain present

29:40 and the candidates will remain

29:42 present during the campaign.

29:44 What is the update

29:46 on the results of Lahore?

29:48 Are you satisfied with the speed

29:50 and pace of the results?

29:52 We do not know.

29:54 If you are present

29:56 in the office of the candidate,

29:58 you will know

30:00 how fast the results are coming

30:02 and how fast they are not.

30:04 What is being done with the results?

30:06 If you take everyone out

30:08 and put them in a room,

30:10 then it is impossible

30:12 to say anything about it.

30:14 Are the results coming

30:16 from a relaxed manner?

30:18 Are they not being told

30:20 because the rank is being changed?

30:22 What is happening?

30:24 I had asked PM LN

30:26 about the significance

30:28 of the current election.

30:30 PM LN has won the election

30:32 with great difficulty.

30:34 He has won it again and again.

30:36 He has manipulated it.

30:38 What will be the impact

30:40 of the election on his statement?

30:42 How will the trends of the election

30:44 be justified?

30:46 What is the significance

30:48 of the election?

30:50 You have also stated

30:52 that the election was snatched from you.

30:54 I think the statements

30:56 are based on the reality.

30:58 If the same action is repeated

31:00 today, then the results

31:02 will be the same as on 8th and 9th February.

31:04 We have a position

31:06 and we have evidence

31:08 that on 8th February,

31:10 the Muslim League won 16 seats

31:12 in the entire country.

31:14 The seats that I am running

31:16 for the election,

31:18 are the same seats that were given

31:20 to the Muslim League on 8th February.

31:22 If the same action is repeated

31:24 and the seats are given again

31:26 to the Muslim League,

31:28 then there will be no effect

31:30 on the PTI statement.

31:32 The internet has been shut down

31:34 and people are not allowed

31:36 to enter the office.

31:38 There is another factor

31:40 that the government

31:42 has a vision

31:44 to bring

31:46 development

31:48 in the next 4 years.

31:50 Is there a different

31:52 voting trend

31:54 in the election?

31:56 Is it that the MPA

31:58 is close to the PMLN

32:00 and the government

32:02 will vote for him?

32:04 There can be a small difference

32:06 but I don't think

32:08 there will be a big difference.

32:10 The votes that are being

32:12 cast on 8th February

32:14 are just for the sake

32:16 of the people.

32:18 People are talking

32:20 about the streets

32:22 and the neighbourhoods

32:24 but they are not as important

32:26 as they are in normal circumstances.

32:28 People are angry

32:30 and they want to vote

32:32 for the reason

32:34 that they were denied.

32:36 Thank you very much.

32:38 Salman Akram Raja

32:40 and Rukiyani

32:42 were with us

32:44 and we were presenting

32:46 our views on the election.

32:48 The PMLN has an important

32:50 election and they are

32:52 accused of the 8th February election.

32:54 If they had won the elections

32:56 it would have been easier

32:58 for them to say

33:00 that they had won the elections

33:02 and they had to show the results

33:04 when the elections were held.

33:06 I have understood

33:08 that if they see the same

33:10 pattern in today's elections

33:12 then their opposition

33:14 will have

33:16 a reason

33:18 to run

33:20 this movement.

33:22 The argument

33:26 that I mentioned

33:28 is that it was very important

33:30 for the Pakistan Muslim League

33:32 and especially for Marjum Sahiba

33:34 to have a good exercise

33:36 in Lahore.

33:38 If the Sunni

33:40 and Sunni

33:42 hand council

33:44 had been wrong

33:46 then it would have been

33:48 visible.

33:50 If they had won

33:52 then they would have

33:54 been able to show

33:56 the results.

33:58 It was very important

34:00 that the campaign

34:02 was not just about

34:04 the elections.

34:06 Instead of asking

34:08 for the permission

34:10 to hold the elections

34:12 the government

34:14 would have allowed

34:16 the elections.

34:18 It was very important

34:20 for the Pakistan Muslim League

34:22 to have a good exercise

34:24 in Lahore.

34:26 It was a lost party

34:28 and they are already

34:30 on the ground.

34:32 They are on the streets

34:34 like our election.

34:36 The questions that are being raised

34:38 about the results

34:40 and the problems

34:42 are being raised.

34:44 Who is he supporting?

34:46 He is supporting

34:48 the PM.

34:50 He is out of the way

34:52 and I feel

34:54 that the government

34:56 should have tried

34:58 to make the elections

35:00 in a better way.

35:02 The government has

35:04 to give funds

35:06 for the development.

35:08 You should have won the elections

35:10 on a Sunday.

35:12 We have

35:14 with us Daniyal Aziz.

35:16 Let's ask him

35:18 if he can start.

35:20 Tell us,

35:22 which party

35:24 are you in?

35:26 We don't know

35:28 which political party

35:30 you are in.

35:32 There is a lot

35:34 going on behind the scenes.

35:36 You will know soon.

35:38 I want to talk about the elections.

35:40 We are coming to that.

35:42 What are your observations

35:44 from yesterday till today?

35:46 Please.

35:48 I did a press conference

35:50 yesterday.

35:52 There were 326 people

35:54 who were trained.

35:56 3 of them were

35:58 the presiding officers,

36:00 assistant presiding officers

36:02 and senior assistant presiding officers.

36:04 Out of the 155

36:06 presiding officers

36:08 who were notified,

36:10 only 6 were

36:12 in training.

36:14 The entire staff

36:16 was in a meeting

36:18 and the people

36:20 who were chosen

36:22 were in a meeting.

36:24 The police

36:26 were a great example.

36:28 The MPs

36:30 who came here

36:32 were in a polling booth

36:34 and were scared.

36:36 They cast their votes

36:38 and went to the next polling booth.

36:40 There were a lot of people

36:42 with them, including the squad.

36:44 They were there to protect them

36:46 but to scare everyone.

36:48 The reporting

36:50 is going on.

36:52 We have 75 people

36:54 who have come to form 45.

36:56 18,000 people

36:58 are being counted

37:00 and they are doing all this.

37:02 You can see

37:04 the situation here.

37:06 What does the government

37:08 do when it comes to its hands?

37:10 Mr. Daniyal,

37:12 you are doing old politics.

37:14 You have seen all these events.

37:16 When you have a comfortable government

37:18 and you have to make promises

37:20 about funds and development,

37:22 it is very easy.

37:24 You don't need a carrot and stick.

37:26 Even the voters know

37:28 what their interests are.

37:30 It is an easy way.

37:32 Why do you need

37:34 to scare people?

37:36 I don't have a Punjab government.

37:38 You don't have one

37:40 but I am talking about the government.

37:42 I am trying to tell you

37:44 that they are giving

37:46 the people

37:48 the funds

37:50 and they are using

37:52 the funds of the local government

37:54 and they have put

37:56 the banners on them.

37:58 Despite all this,

38:00 the election was losing.

38:02 And now,

38:04 the election,

38:06 the presiding officer

38:08 has put the banners.

38:10 What is the logic behind this?

38:12 Why did they select

38:14 the presiding officer?

38:16 How did the lists change overnight?

38:18 We have not received any notification

38:20 about the assistant presiding officer.

38:22 We have heard

38:24 that some people

38:26 have appointed

38:28 the assistant presiding officer.

38:30 Can you understand

38:32 what has happened here?

38:34 On February 8,

38:36 I was arrested,

38:38 my wife was arrested,

38:40 my son was arrested,

38:42 and the form 45

38:44 tells a terrible story.

38:46 Where I have 648 votes,

38:48 they gave me 48

38:50 and appointed the rest.

38:52 I am giving you an example.

38:54 We have put all these people in the position.

38:56 But they have made a good attitude.

38:58 Nowadays, there is a new minister

39:00 who says that you rig the election

39:02 and then say that the process is there

39:04 and you go and request.

39:06 So what will be the result of what happened here?

39:08 Okay, Mr. Dainaji,

39:10 all these seats,

39:12 the opposition could have won.

39:14 It would have been an impression

39:16 that we were saying.

39:18 But the government did not have

39:20 any clear effect.

39:22 Majority in Punjab,

39:24 Majority in the National Assembly,

39:26 they have a heavy majority.

39:28 Do you think

39:30 that the fight is going on

39:32 on our political scene?

39:34 You can see the solution

39:36 in the near future.

39:38 The government will continue.

39:40 It is not like that.

39:42 People's reaction has come out.

39:44 As Maria was saying,

39:46 the government's big people

39:48 are eager because people

39:50 have to get work done.

39:52 But despite this,

39:54 the government failures,

39:56 like the electricity bill,

39:58 people are holding their ears

40:00 that what will happen with the goods.

40:02 The 500 billion that they had stolen,

40:04 which they identified themselves,

40:06 they were able to collect.

40:08 For your and your viewers' information,

40:10 I want to tell you that

40:12 the 590 billion that was stolen,

40:14 not 9 losses, not technical losses,

40:16 it is clearly theft.

40:18 If it had been collected,

40:20 then in every bill,

40:22 the fee unit would have been 8-18 rupees.

40:24 And they could not do it at all.

40:26 And finally,

40:28 they arrested 22 people

40:30 in the Gujranwala Electric Supply Corporation

40:32 through FIA.

40:34 They went on a bike.

40:36 They were released after a day.

40:38 The fish is suffering outside the water.

40:40 They don't know what to do.

40:42 In the same way,

40:44 the tax net that was to be increased in FPR,

40:46 only 55 retailers

40:48 came and volunteered.

40:50 And the government's priorities

40:52 are to fight the non-bios.

40:54 Thank you very much, Mr. Daniyal,

40:56 for informing us about the process

40:58 of the election.

41:00 The special transmission

41:02 ends here.

41:04 Stay tuned for the latest news.

41:06 We will keep you informed

41:08 as soon as the government

41:10 results are released.

41:12 We take your leave now.
