PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has alleged that PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif is pressuring officials of the caretaker government to send Form-45s and Form-47s ahead of time to Raiwind to rig the polls for Mirpurkhas.

“He wants that he can decide the results of Mirpurkhas while sitting in Raiwing,” he said while referring to Nawaz. “He is conspiring about how to usurp Mirpurkhas’s vote.”

Bilawal said the PML-N wanted to get the PPP contestants defeated and asked the charged crowd if it would allow that to happen.
