Elections in Gilgit-Baltistan held in transparent manner: Shibli Faraz

Islamabad, November 16, 2020 (PPI-OT): Information Minister Shibli Faraz has said the elections in Gilgit Baltistan were held in the most transparent manner. Addressing a news conference in Islamabad today (Monday), he said the people of Gilgit Baltistan fully participated in the democratic process. He said the people of this region have rejected the narrative of the PDM and voted for a bright future.

The Information Minister rejected the opposition’s allegations of rigging saying it is their hallmark especially that of the PML (N) that only those elections are free in which they secure victories. Shibli Faraz said rule of law is the priority of the present government and it will go after each and every corrupt element. He said we want to take the country towards betterment. He said the PML (N) leader Maryam Nawaz should present evidence as to how she accumulated the assets instead of giving lectures on democracy.
