ISLAMABAD, Pakistan: The ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has categorically said that no organized rigging took place in the May 2013 general elections.

The ruling party endorsed the reports of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) which said that no organized rigging took place in the elections and the mandate of national and provincial assembly is absolutely accurate.

The Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) also submit its response as directed by the judicial commission, and said that the PML-N, the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the PTI committed rigging by spending over the allocated limit on their election campaigns.
