PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif has said that the election commission is the right body to decide when to hold the elections, and that his opinion is the same as that of the commission.
“It is a fair election commission and will take the best decision in this regard. We are ready for elections. Delimitation is yet to be done, which will take time and the commission has its eyes on it and will decide accordingly,” Nawaz said while talking to the media at the Dubai airport before boarding his flight back to Pakistan.
He said he was happy he was returning to Pakistan after four years, adding that when he had left the country in 2019, its condition was not favourable.
“I wish the circumstances of the country were better than those in 2017, which is concerning. It is sad that the country that was supposed to be on the path to development has, instead of moving ahead, gone backward in every aspect, including economical, financial, social. People’s lifestyles have worsened. But there is hope, and we shouldn’t lose hope. We can still make it better because we ourselves damaged them. If we have to stand on our two feet, we’ll have to do it ourselves, nobody will pick us up,” the former premier stressed.
