– Siraj calls for robust democracy –
Few days back, Haq stressed the need for robust democracy.
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, Haq said: “There exists such a democracy in the country where decisions are made before and elections are held afterwards.”
He recalled the recently held elections, saying, “Even as of now, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has not managed to provide clarification over the delay in the poll results.”
“Though Shehbaz Sharif has not taken the oath as the country’s prime minister, But he [Shehbaz Sharif] is still saying that the country has no option but to approach the International Monetary Fund (IMF).”
Deeming the elections as "fraud," she said, “Even the recently held elections were based on rigging like the elections held previously.”
