Further, the PTI leader urged Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) Maulana Fazlur Rehman to not boycott parliament.

"Maulana Fazlur Rehman should take back his decision that his elected candidates will not take the parliamentary oath in light of Imran's vow to aid in probing opposition parties' rigging allegations," Haque told Geo News.

The PTI leader also said that the PTI is in talks with various political parties for support to form the government in the capitaland in Punjab.

"We have the mandate to form governments in the Centre and Punjab," he reiterated. 

During his victory speech on Thursday Khan said: "We want to work in every possible way to ensure peace in Afghanistan. I would love an open border system like the EU with Afghanistan. Afghanistan is that neighbour of ours that has seen the most human misery and damage in the name of wars. The people of Afghanistan need peace, and Pakistan wants peace in Afghanistan."
