Opposition leader in the National Assembly Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan on Friday said seats in the Senate elections were being “publicly auctioned”. Speaking to reporters outside the National Assembly on Friday, Nisar expressed his dismay at the use of money to influence the ongoing Senate elections, suggesting the “bad fish” not only be expelled from parliament, but also thrown out of politics completely.

He said selling and buying of votes was a shameful act. “We should be choosing our leaders instead of electing merchants,” he added. The PML-N leader demanded the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) take notice of the matter. He expressed the resolve that he would raise the voice against use of money during the election in the National Assembly.
