Islamabad, July 27 (TNS): After Pakistan’s parliamentary elections concluded on July 25, political analysts and commentators appreciated free and fair polls.

Nevertheless, the outcome of these elections has demonstrated that most of the Pakistani people are seeking new leadership to steward the country’s politics on social media.

They were fed up with the game of musical chairs between the two main political parties, the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), which has been going on since 1988.

Around 17.4 million people, aged between 18 and 25-years-old, were supposed to cast their vote for the first time this time around. This number, combined with 28 million voters between 26 and 35 years-old, accounts for the youth vote in Pakistan —more than 50 percent of 105 million registered voters.
