During the previous elections PTI, JI, Baloch nationalist parties and PMLN were in coaliltion and all of them had decided to boycott the elections. Near the elections PMLN made a uturn and contested, leaving all of the rest in limbo. Anyways in bye-elections PTI won Imran Khan’s seat and a couple of NWFP assembly seat. Anyways, Imran Khan’s popularity has increased in recent months (whether that translates into more seats for him in the next election needs to be seen), but certainoly it is giving PMLN some sleepless nights.

This is utter non-sense, it is only 4 years old incident and not decades old that you are trying to lie about it…

Here is what really happened…

All parties including PML-N decided to boy-cott the elections under musharaf regime ( the name of the alliance was APDM), PPP under benazir was part of that alliance, NS and BB met and later rightly convinced former to take part in Election, NS came back to the rest of the members of APDM ( other than PML-N and PPP there was not any major party in APDM, in those times, PTI had one seat in NA) and reasoned with them on the the pros and cons of not taking part in elections and tried his best to convince them, but PTI, JI, and others ( who normally do not get more than 5 seats in the assembly of 300+) refused and told NS that if PML-N takes part in elections, they will throw him out of APDM ( funny that the two major parties of Pakistan were out of APDM, what is left there, have anyone heard about it lately) any way, NS went ahead and whatever little time he had, they took part in the elections… and it was the right move, had NS not been in the parliament, NRO today might have been the part of the constitution, Judges might have not been restored ( hot issue back then)…

So saying NS ditched is plain lie built by some party who only have won only ONE seat in the their 16 years long history of parliamentary politics…
