In a message at his official twitter account, Imran Khan said PM Nawaz showed lack of seriousness about senate elections by visiting Kingdom of Saudi Arabia after being invited by Saudi King Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al Saud.

PM Nawaz left for Saudi Arabia on a three-day official visit on Wednesday, a day before senate polling.
He also criticized PM Nawaz for issuing a presidential ordinance hours before senate polling that restrict each tribal senator to just one vote instead of the previously allowed as many votes as the number of vacant seats.
The midnight Presidential Ord altering FATA Senate voting hours before election was to begin a familiar tactic of Sharifs to stop fair play
