PML-N will congratulate, Saad Rafique asks PTI to form govt with PPP

LAHORE: Former federal minister and leader of the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N), Khawaja Saad Rafique, has requested that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) establish a coalition government in the center.

In a tweet on “X” (previously Twitter), Khawaja Saad Rafique stated that as no political party has acquired a majority in the National Assembly following the most recent election, all parties are equally obligated to form a government.

He urged independent candidates supported by the PTI to run for office and create a government led by the PPP. According to the federal minister, Pakistan Muslim League leader Nawaz dislikes donning a crown that is covered in thorns.

Prior to this, JUI-F chairman Maulana Fazlur Rehman declared that his party has “completely” rejected the results of the general elections held on February 8 and extended an invitation to PML-N leader Nawaz Sharif to join him on the opposition benches.

It is significant to note that Qamar Zaman Kaira, the head of the People’s Party, stated that the PML-N has been given the mandate from the PPP to form a government.
