SIALKOT, Feb 12: PML-N chief and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif has pledged to restore the country’s judiciary to its pre-Nov 3 position besides upholding its prestige after winning the Feb 18 general elections.

Addressing a public meeting at a local stadium in Narowal on Tuesday, Sharif said that Feb 18 would be the day of the PML-N, as the people would deflate “the (bi) cycle of corruption” by voting the PML-Q out from country’s politics.

While canvassing for PML-N candidate for NA-117 Ch Ahsan Iqbal and others, the former prime minister said that the people must come forward to foil the government’s rigging plans and ensure free and fair polling. Sharif said that the PML-N would thwart the government’s every rigging plan.

He said that defeat had become the fate of the PML-Q despite the whole government machinery was campaigning for converting its defeat into an artificial victory. The polling day would also be the day of accountability of the PML-Q by the people in the court of the people, the PML-N chief added.

Ahsan Iqbal also spoke on the occasion. Earlier, the former prime minister was accorded a warm welcome upon his arrival and was taken to the venue in a big procession.
