ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Monday chaired a high-level meeting with cabinet members and political leadership of the Pakistan Muslim League —Nawaz (PML-N) to expedite electoral reforms in order to make future elections fair and transparent in all respects.

The premier said that after the judicial commission’s report, there needs to be a way forward for further strengthening the democratic system.

PM Nawaz also directed all cabinet members and the senior political leadership of PML-N to reach out to the masses and take them in confidence regarding the party’s development-oriented vision, which would guide the country towards stability and prosperity.

He further said that it is now time to show magnanimity and political maturity by all stakeholders of democracy so that the nation's time is not wasted in frivolous disputes and petty squabbles.

PM Nawaz also said that he believes in politics of values rather than politics of power. He added that it is high time to focus on strengthening democracy for Pakistan’s future.

The judicial commission was constituted earlier this year to probe Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf's (PTI) allegations of rigging in the 2013 general election, and concluded in its report that polls were in large part "organised and conducted fairly and in accordance with the law".

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, in his address last week, took the nation into confidence over the recently published report by the judicial commission saying it has been proved that there was no rigging on any level and that the 2013 general elections were free and fair.
