Sardar Usman Buzdar, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf's (PTI) nominee for the slot of Chief Minister for Punjab, said on Friday that he was thankful to party Chairman Imran Khan for nominating him.
Buzdar said he never dreamt that he would ever be given a chance to become CM Punjab.
Usman Buzdar hails from the tribal area of Barthi in Dera Ghazi Khan.
The PTI nominee vows that he and his team would work in line with the law and that their performance would be unparalleled.
The allegations about land grabbing and estate allotment were not correct, Buzdar added, denying that he was related to any of those claims.
The issue of land allotment has been going on since 1970, he said, adding that his father had bought the land, which is not a crime, and that he possessed the records of the sale.
Usman Buzdar further added that he had nothing to do with the Taunsa fire that destroyed some documentation.
Buzdar had clinched victory from the PP-286 (Dera Ghazi Khan) constituency, with 26,897 votes to his name, in the July 25 election.
