ISLAMABAD: PML-Q president Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain alleged Tuesday that Mian Nawaz Sharif speech influenced the transparent elections and electoral results were changed after his speech

"Mian Nawaz Sharif speech influenced the transparent elections. Results of only a few constituencies had been announced when Mian Nawaz Sharif speech spread across the country through media. Following his speech, the DPOs and DCOs turned their eyes and the results were entirely changed.

The results were complied keeping in view his speech. We are concerned over it and we have presented out stance to election commission in this respect", he said this while talking to the journalists after filing complaint with election commission on polls rigging Tuesday.

"My brother and PML-Q candidate for national assembly seat was contesting election from Gujarat and he was defeated through rigging. We have filed complaints of rigging with election commission what we have received from any constituency apart from Gujarat," he held.

PML-Q Secretary General Mushahid Hussain Syed said completion of electoral process in the situation what was prevailing in the country was a good omen. The elections led to strengthen not only federation but they also fortified Balochistan. Peace will prevail in Balochistan following the stabilization of democratic process in Balochistan.
