In an election campaign in Kotli for the forthcoming polls, he said that the opposition’s declarations of the government making Azad Kashmir a province are groundless.

“I don’t know where this came from, but I want to clarify one thing,” the premier pointed out.

After the PTI government wins elections, another referendum will be held.

The PM further stated that “Kashmir will be given an option if they want to become a part of Pakistan or want independence.”

Whereas the PM further stated that another accusation of the opposition was falsifying in the elections. “Your government, your people, your election commission and we will rig elections?”

Since the last year, we have been preparing to bring e-voting. What will happen when electronic voting is introduced? Once the vote is cast, you will just have to press a button and the result will be in front of you.

PM pointed out that when the PTI government came to power in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in 2013, the province was in fiasco because of the war on terror.

“A UNDP report proves that the province experiences exponential growth between 2013 and 2018,” he said, adding that this is why the province that never chose a government twice voted for PTI.

The PM pledged the people of AJK health cards, food subsidies, interest-free loans, and education. “Through the Ehsaas and Kamyab Jawan programs, we will pull people out of poverty and give them a better standard of living.”

Furthermore, The AJK elections are set to be held on July 25.
