KARACHI, Jan 21: Ikram Saigal, a columnist, has refused to accept the Senate ticket given to him by Pakistan Muslim League (Quaid-i-Azam).
In a statement Ikram said: “I am grateful to the PML-Q for having nominated my name for the Senate, even though I had not applied for it.
“While it is a matter of pride to acknowledge the faith and trust reposed in me I am unable to accept the honour because it would detract me from my professional responsibilities as an independent analyst on a wide range of domestic and external issues.
“Nevertheless I again thank the PML-Q leadership for the undeserved nomination.”
