Imran Khan is panicking in the face of defeat, says Ayaz Sadiq

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) candidate for the upcoming by-election in NA-122, Sardar Ayaz Sadiq on Sunday said he has defeated PTI Chairman Imran Khan twice before and the latter was panicking in the face of yet another defeat.

Speaking at a rally organised in connection with October 11 by-polls here, the former National Assembly speaker said the ‘lions of N-league’ were prepared to defend their seat.

He said if elections were won with money then Aleem Khan – PTI’s candidate for the by-poll – would have never lost the poll in 2013 at the first place. He added that Imran Khan will again complain of rigging after Oct 11.

Speaking on the occasion, PML-N stalwart Khawaja Saad Rafique said Imran Khan’s party tenders resignations first and then begs for their withdrawal.

“Imran Khan has lost people’s confidence by tendering resignations,” he said, adding that ‘votes will defeat (currency) notes in the by-poll’.
