PML-N will contest polls
The PML-N will take part in the elections scheduled for January 8, after earlier saying it would boycott, two party spokesmen told AFP on Sunday. A PML-N spokesman said the decision was taken after PPP Co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari asked party chief Nawaz Sharif to participate. Separately, Nawaz told the Voice of America that his party had announced the boycott as a gesture of solidarity with the PPP. Since the latter had decided to participate, he said, the PML-N Central Executive Committee would meet on Monday (today) to decide if it should follow suit. Posted by: Fred 2007-12-31 |
