PML-N decides not to support any other PM

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) reiterated its stance on early elections, saying that it would oppose the appointment of a new prime minister, in case Yousuf Raza Gilani is ousted from his job.

After submitting his nomination papers for the Senate elections here on Monday, senior PML-N leader Ishaq Dar told reporters that the party had not backtracked from its demand of holding early general elections.

He said that his party would take steps in making the election commission impartial.

When asked about the memogate scandal, Dar insisted that the PML-N was acting responsibly on the matter and that disinformation was being spread against his party leadership.—FTNews
