Asad Umar was optimistic to get the mandate in the upcoming elections and believed that if PTI government fails to deliver in the first year of its tenure then it has no claim to politics. He said, “I have presented maximum bills for legislation at the floor of the House for the welfare of Islamabad’s citizens which were only opposed by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) parliamentarians”. “If his party comes into power, then all the halted legislation would be passed for the betterment of the people in the capital”, he added.
