Talking to newsmen in Multan, Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood said that there could be no compromise on the change of corrupt and rotten system, adding that the Prime Minister of Pakistan was committed to eradicate corruption in the country.
He said that the horse-trading is being heard in the Senate elections, the opposition has always played politics with money. The opposition can clearly see its defeat in the Senate elections, therefore opposition groups have called for a boycott of the open ballot.
