Khawaja Asif asks national institutions to play role for free, fair elections

ISLAMABAD    -    Defence Minister Khawaja Muhammad Asif on Monday asked the national institutions to play role for conducting free and fair elections.  Installing Imran Khan as Prime Minister of Pakistan has been flopped, he said while talking to a private television channel.  Voicing serious concerns over past elections, he said, 2018 election was not organized in a transparent manner.  He said, Imran’s government has been removed through no-confidence move.  We are trying to bring improvement in the national institutions for conducting general elections in a free and fair manner, he said.  Commenting on political system of the country, he said, it is unfortunate that a deliberate movement had been launched to malign the political system and politicians.
