خیبر پختونخواہ کے انتخابات دو حوالوں سے اہم ہیں پہلا یہ کہ پہلی بار براہ راست تحصیل کی سطح پر براہ راست ووٹ سے منتخب نمائندوں کو اختیارات منتقل ہو رہے ہیں مضبوط مقامی حکومت کا وعدہ صرف عمران خان نے پورا کیا اور دوسرا پہلی بار حکومت نے شفاف اور غیر جانبدارانہ انتخابات کروائے

He said that for the first time, powers were being transferred directly to the elected representatives at the tehsil level and for the first time the government held fair and transparent elections.
He said otherwise it was easy to have a dictator in the case of the Chief Minister and run the business which was the tradition of PPP and PML-N.
Taking a jibe on the PPP he said that the people of Sindh were still suffering from this attitude.
