LAHORE: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has at last finalised around 80 per cent of its National Assembly candidates for 112 out of the total 141 NA seats in Punjab.
Similarly, the party’s parliamentary board has made a decision about 65pc of Punjab Assembly seats by selecting 192 candidates for the 297-member house.
Take a look: To be a winner, you have to look like a winner
Former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s daughter Maryam Nawaz is set to contest her first election from Lahore’s NA-125 constituency (Lahore-III) against the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf’s Dr Yasmin Rashid, who had contested her first election against Nawaz Sharif in the 2013 general elections and later a by-election against Begum Kulsoom Nawaz.
Shahbaz to run for three NA and as many PA seats; party fields no candidate from two NA constituencies where Chaudhry Nisar will contest elections
Earlier, there was speculation that Ms Maryam may contest from NA-127 (Lahore-V) relieving Pervaiz Malik but finally the parliamentary board fielded her from NA-125 and Mr Malik from NA-127.
The PML-N parliamentary board has for the time not taken a decision of awarding a ticket to any candidate from NA-59 and NA-63 where the party’s estranged leader and former interior minister Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan is in the run as an independent candidate.
PML-N spokesperson Marriyum Aurangzeb said this was the first list of candidates who have been selected for the award of a party ticket. The selected candidates’ list for the remaining constituencies will be issued in a day or two.
PML-N president Shahbaz Sharif has chosen to contest election from three National Assembly constituencies — NA-124 (Lahore-II), NA-132 (Lahore-X) and NA-192 (Dera Ghazi Khan-IV). Similarly, he will be in the run from three Punjab Assembly constituencies — PP-146 (Lahore-III), PP-164 (Lahore-XXI) and PP-165 (Lahore-XXII).
Former provincial law minister Rana Sanaullah is contesting from NA-106 (Faisalabad-VI) as well as from Punjab Assembly constituency PP-113 (Faisalabad-XVII).
As many as 29 National Assembly seats from Punjab are still open for the selection of candidates. They are: NA-59 and NA-63 in Rawalpindi, NA-64 and NA-65 (Chakwal), NA-66 (Jehlum), NA-90 and NA-92 (Sargodha), NA-93 and NA-94 (Khushab), NA-98 (Bhakkar), NA-101 and NA-109 (Faisalabad), NA-114 and NA-116 (Jhang), NA-145 (Pakpattan), NA-154 and NA-161 (Multan), NA-162 (Vehari), NA-166, NA-168 and NA-169 (Bahawalnagar), NA-174 (Bahawalpur), NA-175, NA-176, NA-177 and NA-178 (Rahim Yar Khan), NA-183 and NA-185 (Muzaffargarh) and NA-189 (Dera Ghazi Khan).
