As early results showed the victory of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf in the general elections, PTI chairman Imran Khan summoned his party leaders on Thursday for consultations at his residence in Bani Gala.
According to the sources in the know of the development, the party leaders will discuss and decide the strategies for forming a government.
Khan is expected to ask his party leaders to contact independent candidates from across the Punjab and enlist their support. The meeting will formulate a strategy to counter opponent's allegation that the elections were rigged.
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has rejected the results citing outright rigging.
Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) denied the allegations, asserting that the elections were "100 per cent fair and transparent."
