Fawad encouraged political parties to focus on their election manifestos rather than engaging in allegations, affirming the caretaker government's impartial conduct.
Regarding statements by 'ladley and level playing field', he said they were political statements, reiterating his collaboration with Nawaz Sharif in the past while distancing himself from Sharif's political agenda.
