00:00 Mr. Sharmila, we have seen how your party has reached out to the people of Sindh
00:06 and how they are going to unite with MQM in Karachi.
00:09 What are your thoughts?
00:10 What are your options for the election?
00:14 Is there any plan for this?
00:15 Mr. Ashfaq, People's Party is a very democratic party
00:20 and it doesn't need any kind of indifference.
00:23 We don't want to go to the elections by uniting with anyone.
00:27 We trust the votes of the people.
00:29 We trust their love.
00:31 And we will go to the elections alone.
00:34 If someone else needs indifference, that's a different story.
00:37 Yes, if someone else wants to join our party, that's a good thing.
00:41 In the coming days, there may be seat adjustments in some places.
00:45 But again, the Central Executive Committee of People's Party will decide this,
00:49 which is the highest decision-making forum.
00:52 But as of today, as of now, People's Party will go to the elections on its own.
00:58 Alright. Mr. Murad, please tell us,
01:01 the way Mr. Sharjeel's statement has come out,
01:05 that we will sweep clean in Sindh and Balochistan
01:08 and will get better election results than Punjab.
01:12 Do you think the current political situation and the standing of political parties,
01:17 especially in Punjab, is this a realistic statement by Mr. Sharjeel?
01:22 Look, you saw earlier that in the 2013 elections and the 2018 elections,
01:27 I think my opponent, People's Party,
01:32 I think he got 1800 votes in 2013,
01:36 and I think he got 40,000 votes.
01:41 And similarly, in the 2018 elections, I think he got 2000 or 2500 votes,
01:48 and I got 60,000 votes.
01:51 So you can see that it is very difficult to fill that gap,
01:57 I think, for People's Party.
01:59 Because I think, the more realistic the statement is, the better.
02:04 Because we can try, and for that, they will have to do a lot of activity from now on,
02:10 which is not visible.
02:12 I mean, you will not see any activity of People's Party in Punjab.
02:18 They always get some seats from the South, from South Punjab,
02:22 but those are their seats, the electables,
02:26 the Makhdoom family, those are their personal seats,
02:30 which they lose very little.
02:32 So that's why you can't say that those are the seats of People's Party,
02:36 or the votes of People's Party, those are their own personal votes,
02:40 from there, they always get 4, 5, 6 seats,
02:43 or like last time, 7, 8 seats.
02:45 So they stay on that number, they never move from that number.
02:49 So as long as People's Party doesn't do its whole effort in Punjab in a different way,
02:55 which they have been doing before, they have seen that it didn't work.
02:58 That effort didn't work.
03:00 So they should get the same results as they got.
03:02 Unless they change their program, I think the result will be the same.
03:06 Alright, Waleed Sahib, the situation that is going on right now,
03:11 you say that you have the support of the public,
03:14 and in the elections, you must be anticipating that the results will be good for you.
03:19 But the other political parties, like the claims of People's Party,
03:24 the claims of Noon League, are there in their own place.
03:28 How do you rate them in this respect,
03:32 which party can give a threat to your party in the elections?
03:41 The answer to your question will depend on the level playing field.
03:46 If there is a level playing field, then there is no threat to anyone.
03:50 And even if there is no level playing field,
03:53 I believe in my heart that we still have no threat to anyone.
03:59 Because we will get down to the ground, and we will get down as much as we can.
04:04 Whether we campaign or not, I have not given you specific examples,
04:08 but I am giving you an example of Lahore, which I gave you.
04:12 In addition to that, people were arrested in Kana,
04:15 which was supposed to be organized by the Jalsa.
04:17 There was a convention in Kana, and the same thing happened in Mansehra.
04:20 Two days ago, on Saturday or Sunday,
04:23 the same thing happened in Karachi, which was a confrontation by the administration.
04:27 But this is, I want to talk more about the threat,
04:30 and I think our complaints are in our place, our disagreement is in our place.
04:35 Bilawal Sahib is saying some things which I support.
04:39 And especially what he said today, and I am repeating his words,
04:44 that if the PMLN is getting down as a Kings Party,
04:48 then it is understood that it will be successful as a Kings Party.
04:51 So what Bilawal Sahib said is that the same thing will happen to them,
04:54 which happened to the Kings Party in 2008.
04:56 But it is not necessary that it will happen through the PPP.
04:59 It will happen through the KTI.
05:01 You have become conscious of this, I am watching a lot of shows today.
05:05 I have also read the story in Doroz Kabir Dawn,
05:08 in which it is written that they are so concerned that they are being called 'Ladla',
05:12 and they are trying to make a committee,
05:15 to make such statements that they get out of the trap of 'Ladla'.
05:19 And I also believe this.
05:21 Again, I am giving my opinion, I believe in this matter.
05:24 That no matter how much they make statements, they will not be able to get out of it,
05:28 because they have already been beaten up by the people who have come with them,
05:31 and the way they have been given red carpet,
05:33 and the way they are being saluted by the CCPO Lahore,
05:35 and they are doing all this.
05:37 I think they have not received any lessons from their past,
05:43 that where do voters go,
05:45 and how do voters get more of their bow down towards those who feel that they are oppressed.
05:53 And you can see how much commentary has been done on that Dawn investigation.
05:57 That is because they themselves are understanding it now.
06:00 That is why we do not have any threat.
06:02 Wherever we need to agree,
06:05 and the announcements that are being made by the People's Party,
06:09 I think our stance is quite consistent with them,
06:12 and we will keep our agreement with them to that extent.
06:15 We also want to keep our individuality in this way,
06:18 in relation to the election.
06:20 We do not need any kind of alliance or any kind of alliance.
06:25 But usually alliances and such things happen after the results,
06:30 when you have to call a woman.
06:32 But this happened here during the election.
06:35 You see the alliance of PMQM,
06:37 so call your respondent.
06:39 PMQM and PMLN have not yet been able to decide
06:42 whether they are making an alliance or they are making a seat adjustment.
06:46 Every day there is a contradiction.
06:48 And this will not come until the time comes to file the papers,
06:52 and until we reach the stage of the election,
06:56 a lot more can happen during this.
06:59 But once again, the answer to your question is that we do not have any threat from any political party.
07:04 We are entering the field without being threatened by any political party.
07:11 Okay, okay. I got it sir.
07:15 Yes, Mr. Danyal, what answer would you like to give?
07:18 I do not have time to give you an answer.
07:22 When the entire establishment was formed,
07:25 the Stanga Party was made the King's Party,
07:28 they were given trophies,
07:31 even then after the 2018 elections,
07:34 we came forward as the single largest community.
07:38 And God willing, we will still be the single largest community.
07:41 We are not making a seat adjustment with anyone.
07:44 Or we sit and fight together in elections,
07:48 or someone joins us, then that is a different story.
07:52 But as far as our people are concerned,
07:55 we have always come with the power of the people,
07:58 with the votes of the people, with the mandate of the people.
08:01 And we have come because we have not made false promises.
08:04 We have not made a plan of making toilets in bathrooms with donkeys and jackals.
08:11 We have made it practically.
08:13 We have built infrastructure from sand walls,
08:18 we have built infrastructure for roads,
08:20 we have given infrastructure for electricity,
08:22 we have parked Pakistan with terrorism,
08:24 we have made this country an Asian tiger,
08:26 and we have taken out all the promises of all those plans from the storm of electricity.
08:32 Apart from false promises,
08:34 they have to give 20 crore dollars to him,
08:37 10 crore to him,
08:38 and return this here.
08:40 What is this?
08:41 They have nothing to sell apart from a false story,
08:45 abuse, hatred and the incident of 9th May.
08:48 They came to sell the same hatred that they sold on 9th May.
08:52 And the same seed of hatred that they had planted,
08:57 and are planting even today.
08:59 They have no story of Pakistan's construction and development.
09:03 This is the group that did one project in its eight years,
