Former Prime Minister and PML-N supreme leader Nawaz Sharif on Tuesday asked senior party leaders to explain root causes of defeat in recent AJK polls.
Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz, former ruling party in AJK, could only bag six AJK legislature Assembly seats this time around.
Sources said that former premier talked to Maryam Nawaz, Farooq Haidar, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, Ahsan Iqbal and other senior leadership of party and queried about reasons of his party’s failure.
Sources also said that party leaders told Nawaz Sharif that PML-N bungled down due to PTI-led central governments’ ‘unprecedented rigging’ in AJK polls.
Former AJK Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haidar told Nawaz that PML-N was winning elections on the day till 10: pm in the night, but results were forcefully stopped.
