He added that it is need of the hour to get clear majority for any party.
The former prime minister reached the polling station in NA-128 with PML-N chief organiser Maryam Nawaz. The candidate of Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP) from NA-128 Awn Chaudhry was also accompanying the PML-N leader.
The PML-N didn’t field its candidate from the constituency as part of seat adjustment with Jehangir Tareen-led IPP.
