RESTORATION OF MPA: The supporters of MPA Wajihuzaman Khan took to streets in Oghi on Monday and danced to drumbeats after the Supreme Courts suspended an order of the Election Commission of Pakistan about his disqualification.

`Thanks to Allah and people of my district, who supported me a lot in the critical time of my life but the court`s verdict is defeat of Governor Sardar Mahtab, who hatched conspiracies against me and other party leaders, said Mr Khan while speaking to people at Milad Square in Oghi after the apex court announced the verdict.The ECP had disqualified Mr Khan after PML-N approached it stating that Mr Khan had voted against the party`s candidate in the Senate elections.

Following the announcement of verdict by the Supreme Court, the people also distributed sweets and showered Mr Khan with flowers.

`I will no more remain loyal to the party, which could not put my district on way to development even after the people voted it in two National and four provincial assembly`s constituencies in 2013 general elections,` he said.

The restored MPA said that he had demanded a development package of Rs2 billion for the sake of people of his district from Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif, but he not only turned down his demand but also attempted to label him as rebel of the party.
