PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif has declared his intention to overhaul the country’s political system that has led to the “unceremonious departure of prime ministers” and questioned the reasons behind his own removal from power ahead of the previous elections.

“Will you tell what enmity you had with me that you ousted me despite the fact that our government overcame loadshedding, controlled inflation and laid a network of motorways in the country?” he asked while addressing a campaign rally in Punjab’s Nankana Sahib district.
