Re: ANP will be taking part in elections as well
The Awami National Party (ANP) on Thursday refused to boycott the general elections unless all opposition parties, including the Pakistan People’s Party Parliamentarians (PPPP), do the same with the resolve to bar the elections at every cost. “The ANP is not in favour of repeating the mistake it committed during the 1985 elections by providing cronies of dictatorship with an opportunity to grab power,” ANP provincial General Secretary Mian Iftikhar Hussain told a press conference. On the occasion, Provincial Chairman of Tehreek Istiqlal Falak Niaz Khattak announced to join ANP.
