Now days during election campaign some political parties are being seen on TV for advertisement purpose. Even during prime time, their advertisements have become more common than advertisements of commercial companies.
The average length of their ads is one minute and often you'll see back to back ads. Every channel is broadcasting these advertisements dozens of times every day. Whereas we all know that television airtime is so expensive. Following political parties are buying airtime much efficiently:

1) Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf
2) Pakistan Muslim League (N)
3) Pakistan Peoples Party
4) Jamat e Islami

1-Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf
We all know that PTI didn’t form government in past nor they joined partially to any government. Therefore we can easily admit that they were never involved in corruption at government level. Then who is funding to them for such huge advertisement on television? Keeping in view their campaign is being run on internet too.

2-Pakistan Muslim League (N)
PML-N has formed government multiple times & all know that Mian Nawaz Sharif has a lot of money and have several businesses. They can run election ads.

3-Pakistan Peoples Party
PPP also has formed government multiple times and Asif Ali Zardari has almost 6 billion in Swiss accounts. They can run media election ads too.

4-Jamat e Islami
All know that Jamat e Islami do not have feudal. I think their members belong to middle class but they are also run media blitz. Although their ads are not telecasting frequently but question raises that how have they been funded for such election ads?

My questions are following:
Q1: The daily expenses of these advertisement campaigns are estimated almost Rs. 200 Million. From where these political parties has brought this money?

Q2: If money is being spent by their candidates then question is raises how would these political parties overcome to corruption because their candidates will recover their own money first which they have already spent?

Q3: If money are not being spent by their candidates then who is funding this money? What if foreign powers are going to spend this money?

Q4: If they are being funded by foreign powers then would they not be blackmailed by those powers? And how they could serve to people sincerely?

There is a reason PTI has a naya Pakistan fund, where do you think the donations go? Duh...:coffee:

Then they also have the likes of Jehangir Tareen and Asad Umar. So majority money for PTI is through donations.

For other parties, they are industrialists and waderas, Sharif Family has business, Zardari has money etc.

The biggest ad is of PPP, the Bhutto ki beti ayi thi one. Runs for 5 minutes.

Electronic media is earning too much money from election campaign ... At least some one is earning during this period otherwise all are suffering .. :disagree:
 
.
I saw all ads are lengthy ... But point is this if Zardar & Nawaz Sharif are spending their own money then how could they serve for people? And wouldn't they recover their own money first? Second thing donations are given to Shaukat Khanam Hospital not to PTI ... If they are using money of Shuakat Khanum then it is called corruption ... If Jahangir Tareen & Asad Umer are funding to Party then wouldn't they recover their own money first?

Shaukat Khanum money is given to a separate account, PTI has no relation with that.

PTI'S fund is called naya Pakistan fund, the ad on top of my page is showing it at the moment too, maybe it is on your adsense ad too.

Shaukat Khanum donation and PTI/Naya Pakistan donations are completely different.

As for the personal money, it won't be recovered, the money is being used for election campaigning, you suffer monetary losses in order to get elected. Getting elected is the reward, not the cash.

They are not using Shaukat Khanum's fund but they also collected funds for election campaign ..

Both funding are not related with each other ..

Ok ... I agree that these are two different accounts of donation but we didn't see such huge donation campaign for "NAYA PAKISTAN" which we saw for Shaukat Khanum while it did.

Same thing will be applied upon others then why do we condemn to them?

The donation campaign for elections is not recently started and still it is going on ...

And yes donations for Shaukat Khanum is much huge thn Naya Pakistan ..

First of all how can you say that the election campaign isn't massive, it is massive and there are lots of donations. People inside Pakistan and outside trust Imran Khan so they donate generously.

And yes, Shaukat Khanam and Naya Pakistan funds are different. Shaukat Khanam have its own organizing body which has nothing to do with PTI or Imran Khan and vise verse..

How is the method to get donations for Naya Pakistan ... Because I couldn't see this campaign in Karachi ... None of PTI workers are being seen to gathering donations ... I don't know but they are definitely working in rest of Pakistan ..
