PML-N Acting President Makhdoom Javed Hashmi has said that new general elections would be held in 2006 minus General Pervez Musharraf, hence the PML-N workers should prepare themselves for it. He expressed these views while talking to PML-N General Secretary Punjab Zaeem Qadri after his appearance in the NAB court here on Saturday.
Javed further said that the local bodies' elections would serve as rehearsal for them for the general elections. "The forthcoming local bodies elections would also serve as Waterloo for the General," he added.
According to him, both Nawaz Sharif and Benazir Bhutto would resume the leadership of their parties and they would restore the true democratic process in the country.
He warned the authoritarian rulers that if they tried to rig the LB elections, new movements take birth, which would overthrow the present rulers. He observed that the present set up has failed to deliver, as price hike, unemployment and terrorism have become the order of the day, and even life and property were not safer in the country.
PPPP, PML-N MEETING HELD: A joint meeting of PPPP and PML-N was held here under the chairmanship of Makhdoom Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Deputy Secretary-General of PPPP to discuss the adjustment on different seats of Nazimeen and Naib Nazimeen.
The meeting decided to exchange the lists of candidates with each other. Then potential candidates would be selected from both sides so that maximum number of seats could be won. Malik Muhammad Amer Dogar former District Naib Nazim has been elected unopposed as nazim of union council and six Awam-Dost councillors were also returned unopposed.
Syed Faisal Imam younger brother of Syed Fakhar Imam and Syed Sibtain Shah were elected as Nazim and Nazim unopposed from Qatalpur (Kabirwala) union council.
Minority candidates were almost elected unopposed while some union councils have no minority councillor because no one filed ones candidature.
