00:00 But this is not the place of Pakistan People's Party and PMLN.

00:03 This is not their place to question someone else's electoral process

00:07 when your own democratic attitude is very clearly evident before every election.

00:13 Coming back to the topic, thank you very much Mr. Niazi for joining us.

00:16 Today's election process, questions are being raised on it.

00:19 First of all, it was without competition.

00:21 When you know that your party is under the radar,

00:24 Election Commission of Pakistan is looking at your matter very carefully.

00:28 You did not present any other panel and got an election done.

00:33 All people voted without competition, which will be a challenge later.

00:37 Questions are raised on its transparency.

00:40 Did you get this election done easily or did you face more complications?

00:46 In the name of Allah, the most merciful, the most merciful.

00:50 The election commission's order was on 23rd November, 2023.

01:03 We were given 20 days to get the intra-party election done.

01:08 I will not talk about the order.

01:10 There was no violation of the constitution.

01:13 You know what is happening with the Tehreek-e-Insaf.

01:16 And why we were put in the election.

01:19 And you see, there are 8 general elections on Thursday.

01:22 And next week, you have to give the schedule to the election commission.

01:28 People have to go to the general election.

01:30 And we, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf, are being pushed into the intra-party election.

01:35 Now, the election that we have followed,

01:38 It is the only political party that believes in democracy.

01:43 And I know that because I also led the 2009 intra-party election.

01:49 And we did it before the general election in 2012-2013.

01:56 Although there were so many threats that the election was to be held.

01:59 We followed the whole procedure.

02:01 We have a constitution.

02:03 And under it, there are rules of 2020.

02:06 According to the provision of those rules,

02:08 I have appointed all the returning officers of all four provinces and centers.

02:13 And gave a whole schedule.

02:15 In which we invited the nomination papers for 29th November.

02:20 And with that, we had to do the security of the nomination papers on 1st December.

02:26 And all the nomination papers with proposal, seconder,

02:31 The returning officer had to check their cards.

02:33 He went through all the stages.

02:35 And if there was no objection,

02:37 Then he would make a decision on the objection.

02:40 And if there was an agreement with him,

02:42 Then I had to listen to his appeal as a chief election officer.

02:45 This whole process went through.

02:47 And according to the constitution,

02:49 Because it was a panel election.

02:51 Every province had a president and his panel.

02:54 The question that is being raised with us,

02:56 You see that if we have a voter list,

02:59 Whatever it is, in lakhs,

03:01 If you have any complaint,

03:03 Except for Akbar S. Babar,

03:05 Or any other political party,

03:07 Sir, this is the question.

03:09 You said that leave that,

03:11 We have to ask you questions about other political parties.

03:15 Because you claim that you are better.

03:17 Akbar S. Babar says that when the papers were asked yesterday,

03:21 You say that it was asked after the time,

03:23 That's why we didn't get it.

03:24 He says that you didn't have the papers.

03:26 Secondly, if someone wants to apply for the election,

03:30 Then you didn't have the permission to apply for the election.

03:34 This whole process was in a closed room.

03:36 The results were announced.

03:38 And there is no transparency in it.

03:40 So you said that the rules were made,

03:42 But apparently, a lot of people are raising questions about its transparency.

03:45 For example, I will tell you the story of Pildat.

03:48 The problems that will be facing you,

03:51 First listen to this, then I will answer you.

03:53 Ahmed Bilal Mehboob is saying.

04:00 I have seen the elections of 2012 and 2013.

04:04 I think they are the best in the history of Pakistan.

04:08 Entry party, good elections are considered.

04:11 But this election,

04:13 There was no basic information about them.

04:16 What was the election program?

04:18 Who will be the voters?

04:19 Where is their list?

04:21 When were the nomination papers given to the candidates?

04:24 Who were the candidates?

04:26 Did they enter the papers on time?

04:29 All these things seem very dubious.

04:32 I don't think this was a credible election.

04:35 And the people who have organized it,

04:38 I think they have not served the party.

04:41 I doubt that the Election Commission will be able to accept these results.

04:45 Yes, this is the question.

04:47 It is a million dollar question.

04:48 It is also necessary for the survival of your party at that time.

04:50 Will you be able to defend the election that is going to be challenged by the Election Commission of Pakistan?

04:57 Will you be able to remove the legal doubt from the transparency of the election?

05:02 This is the biggest challenge in front of you.

05:04 Yes, yes.

05:06 The answer to Mr. Mehroop's question is very good.

05:09 He said that the elections of 2012 were very well conducted by PTI.

05:14 I want to tell you that the elections were also conducted by me,

05:19 the party election head of Islamabad region in 2012.

05:26 And the elections were also contested.

05:28 Now, in this election, you said that there will be questions raised on the election.

05:33 Look, we had to follow the procedure, the constitution and the rules.

05:38 If the returning officers who come to us with the nomination papers and gather,

05:46 and there is no panel against them, then we send the results to the election commissioner in the same way.

05:54 And the election commissioner has to announce the resolution.

05:58 In the form of a resolution, the next day.

06:00 Because the returning officer submitted the declaration to me,

06:04 and I announced the election in the resolution.

06:08 We have no candidate with the returning officer except one panel.

06:15 If someone raises such questions, and I think I have no questions,

06:19 I want to ask Babar-S. Akbar that where I was present, my cell number is also with you.

06:27 I have also asked the election commission of Pakistan for security.

06:30 On 29th, I wrote a letter.

06:32 So you contact me, you give me a presentation that I should not participate in the election.

06:37 Go out and meet.

06:39 The second thing is that you saw the clip that they have given on Jio,

06:43 and before that, the media has tracked.

06:46 In that, they have shown that people from KPK were also sitting there, people from Balochistan were also sitting there,

06:51 and who were they from Punjab, they were all secondaries and proposers of those candidates.

06:58 So how can you sit and talk that it will be raised in the process of election,

07:03 which we have nomination, we have done according to the rules election.

07:06 And I think that no party says that,

07:09 they go to a paper and write an unopposed and submit it to the election commission,

07:14 and the election commission is quiet.

07:16 So the party has clearly said that it is an intra-party election.

07:19 Okay, it is clear to you, you can go to the election commission and defend it.
