“I invite the PM candidate of @pmln_org ,@NawazSharifMNS, to engage in a debate with me anytime, anywhere before Feb 8,” he said in a post on X on Friday.

Zardari mentioned that the presidential and prime ministerial candidates participate in televised debates, providing voters with crucial insights into their plans.

“This transparency is vital for an informed electorate ahead of the voting process,” he added.

The 12th general elections, after months of delay, are a couple of weeks away as political leaders are trying to woo voters to elect them to power.

With Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) out of the election race as a party, the PPP and PML-N are the two major parties contesting for electing their prime minister.
