The establishment has reportedly agreed on ousted prime minister Imran Khan’s demand to hold snap polls but PMLN Quaid Nawaz Sharif is not conceding it apparently because of seeing massive popularity of Khan.
Dawn reported on Sunday that the establishment has said yes to snap polls but Nawaz Sharif is afraid of Imran Khan’s popularity knowing that going to fresh polls means a clear defeat for PMLN and PDM other parties.
“Nawaz Sharif was not showing any flexibility over the options presented to him, including on the question of holding snap polls. Elder Sharif is not willing to budge on the suggestions conveyed to him by the powers that be through his brother Shehbaz.”
