Nawaz criticizes judges in Abbottabad rally

Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif on Sunday took an exception to judges who he said took oaths of  allegiance to dictators but failed to deliver justice in his case. 

"Those who are talking about minus one formula don't know Nawaz Sharif is the name of an ideology" said he while addressing a rally in Abbottabad district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.

"Today i have brought my review appeal (against disqualification) here. Pakistani nation will decide on my review petition," he said.

"Pakistan has once again been destabilized," the former prime minister said and asked the participants of the rally whether they would support him in restoring sanctity of vote.  The crowd responded in affirmative. 

The Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz leader arrived in Murree from where he  traveled to Abbottabad.

TV channels aired photo of the former prime minister shaking hands with Pashtoon Khawa Milli Awami Party leader Mehmood Khan Achakzai whom the former met at the Islamabad’s Benazir International Airport.

During their brief encounter, both the leaders discussed current political situation of the country.

The rally is being held at the College Ground where organizers have placed 10000 chairs and huge panaflaxes carrying images of the former prime minister.

Earlier in the day, Muslim League Nawaz leaders Pervaiz Rashid and Asif Kirmani visited the venue to review the preparations for the rally.

Speaking to media, Rashid said Imran Khan was calling for early election because he was scared of PMLN.

PMLN’s provinical leaders Sardar Mehtab Abbasi and Amir Maqam also visited the College Ground in the morning.
