– PPP calls for timely elections –

PPP senior leader Sharjeel Memon on Thursday urged the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to announce the election date immediately.

Expressing his thoughts in Karachi, Mr Memon reiterated: “There is a dire need to hold elections quickly to ensure transparency.”

He underscored the contributions made by the PPP in the country’s political scenario. “None of the parties has made sacrifices like the PPP. The PPP has made great sacrifices to uphold democracy”.

Recalling the events that transpired on May 9, Mr Memon said, “May 9 event is the blackest chapter of the country’s history.”

Mr Memon took a swipe at the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), saying, “The selective people were deliberately subjected to the political vendetta by the PTI.”

“The PTI had harmed the country on all grounds,” he added.

On the auspicious occasion of Eid Miladun Nabi, Mr Memon felicitated the nation.
